NICK BAKER'S WEIRD CREATURES: BLOOD SQUIRTING LIZARD
If you were to search the world for the ugliest, slimiest and, well, weirdest creatures, where would you go? And who would actually want to? Nick Baker, that's who! Ever since he was a boy, Nick has been intrigued by the exhibits of strange animals found in the British Natural History Museum and wondered what these weird creatures would be like in their native habitat. Now that he's grown up, he's fullfilling that dream and taking you along for the ride. Nick meets with the specialists at the museum and then travels the world over to track down the actual living creatures where they live.
