Plot Synopsis

LEGENDS OF THE WILD is a one-hour docuseries that follows two lifelong friends and wilderness experts -- Damian Duffy and Matt Hoffmann -- who use their combined skills in an attempt to document, discover and solve the most extraordinary mysteries of the natural world. Damian is a former Australian army paratrooper and certified wilderness guide. Matt is a professional wildlife photographer and storm chaser. These two adventurers, with an unparalleled passion for wildlife, have dedicated their entire lives and careers to taking on and capturing Mother Nature and its many wonders. Together in this series, they journey deep into the wild -- risking it all -- to explore some of the world's most hair-raising wildlife legends. In the series premiere, "South American Slasher," Damian and Matt head to Brazil to investigate why Brazilian ranchers are turning up dead, gored by an unknown creature. There's a wide range of animal suspects from jaguars to caimans, but could the killer be something no one suspected? From investigating the possible return of a long extinct deadly creature in Australia, to trying to solve the mystery of disappearing villagers and livestock in the Philippines, Damian and Matt set off into the wild each week to find answers. Then they have to make it out alive.
