Even under searing temperatures of 120 degrees or more, life
tenaciously takes hold in the Sonora Desert. This American
Southwestern region is an arena of daily competition…between
animals, plants and insects, struggling to survive the extremes
and severities of the desert’s environment. It’s truly a “survival
of the fittest,” and a ruggedly beautiful adventure. Marlin
Perkins and Jim Fowler are there observing as predator hunts its
prey, be it the grey fox, badger or sidewinder snake. Then you’ll
be part of the intense excitement as a peccary…the only true
wild pig in the United States…becomes the target of Marlin’s
capture gun, which shoots a harmless, sleep-inducing drug into
the animal. The peccary is then tagged, so that its habits may
be more carefully studied, and that life, under the difficult
circumstances of the Sonora, may be more clearly understood
by man.
