Jungle Killer is the seventh and final episode of the third season of River Monsters.
Episode Description[]
Jeremy Wade sets out to discover the river monster of South America. Piranha get all the press, but is there a more fearsome predator lurking? Tipped off by an attack on a diver, Jeremy discovers that there's a real monster to find.
Episode Summary[]
Everyone knows the piranha is the deadliest fish in South America, but is there a little-known fish that is even more vicious and aggressive than the supposed "flesh-eating piranha"?
After receiving a report of a diver being brutally attacked, Jeremy Wade travels to Brokopondo Reservoir in the remote jungles of Suriname, where he interviews the victim and hears his idea of the culprit.
The man claims the fish was the much-feared "anjumara", a wolf fish: a large, aggressive predator with razor-sharp teeth. Wade travels deep into the jungle in search of a monster fish and uncovers more reports of their savagery, attacking people and animals on both land and sea.
After a "shocking" event and a plague of piranha and caiman, Jeremy comes face-to-face with what is perhaps South America's most vicious fish.
Trivia[]
