River Monsters

Series 3 Episode 3: Silent Assassin

Jeremy travels to the Parana River in Argentina to investigate the death of a young girl. The people who live along the Parana riverbank fear a chilling creature they call `river dog', which is not armed with bone-crunching jaws or terrifying teeth but with a razor-sharp blade tipped with tissue-destroying venom. It is a new species to Jeremy, and it is also the largest freshwater fish that he has ever tackled.
