Animal Planet’s crazy show Untamed and Uncut is back tomorrow night with another crazy episode. This time they take a look at “Heroes and Horror” and looking at the descriptions and videos, it’s amazing to think of what can happen even when you aren’t putting yourself directly in harm’s way.
On tomorrow night’s episode, you’ll see the following stories:
Anaconda Attack – watch the drama unfold when an anaconda attacks wildlife documentarian Toninho Negreiro in the Columbian jungle.
Horse Racing Disaster – this is one of my nightmares come to life, especially after Christopher Reeves’ horrifying accident. A young female jockey named Maggie Carter gets tangled up and hurtles headlong for disaster.
Wounded Bald Eagle – Two brothers discover an injured bald eagle outside Ames, Iowa and attempt to rescue the majestic and dangerous bird. I can’t imagine how intimidating an eagle could be when you’re that up close and personal. We had a near-miss encounter with one in the Canadian Rockies and that was close enough for me!
Princess – an Alabama sheriff’s deputy’s life might be in the hands of his partner, a German shepherd, when he finds himself looking down the wrong end of his own gun.
Trapped Bear – trapped in a sewage tank outside Los Lunas, New Mexico a black bear is near baking in the sweltering desert heat. This must be a truly heartbreaking scene! What can you do to help a bear? I would feel so sorry for it but afraid to approach it at the same time!
