Discover the secret subterranean world where animals rely on extreme adaptations to hunt, hide, and survive beneath the earth.
In this episode of Animal Super Senses, we explore the remarkable biology of fossorial creatures. See how a wombat dermal shield blocks tunnel intruders, witness an inland taipan venom strike cornering prey in desert crevices, and uncover how echidna electroreception senses hidden insects through moist soil. We also examine the acute bulldog ant super vision, the deadly physics of an ant lion sand trap, the rolling wheel spider cartwheel escape, and the internal brush turkey bill thermometer used to monitor egg incubation mounds.
