River Monsters: Difference between revisions

* [[Everything's Worse with Bears]]: An episode in Alaska showed Jeremy having an unnerving run-in with a grizzly, as mentioned in Revolvers Are Just Better below.

* [[Everything's Even Worse with Sharks]]: Bull Sharks, as he investigates, are not only capable of hunting in fresh water, but seem to be actively moving inland for the chance to dominate new territories and feeding grounds.

* [[Food Chain of Evil]]: Everyone knows Piranha eat people, but Arapaima eat piranha! So do dolphins incidently. Also the episodes titular Demon Fish will have a go at Crocodiles if given the chance. Which also pose a hazard in fishing, but not as more as hippos; which have goring tusks, a habit of charging like a boar on land, surprising speed and agility in the water, and the jaw strength to snap a Croc '' in half!'' There is a very good reason the crocodiles leave the hippos a wide berth, even if they are herbovores. He even managed to catch a giant stingray, that may have been a close relative of the one that got [[Crocodile Hunter|Steve Irwin]], but he still won't pick a food fight with wild Bears.

* [[Gonna Need More Trope]]: Played straight in the giant freshwater stingray episode when Jeremy hooks into one so big that it starts towing the boat he's in. The stingray later ends up snapping a heavy-duty saltwater fishing rod designed to handle '''Marlin'''!
