We’re so excited to announce that our 3-part series will be showing this Saturday on National Geographic for at 8pm ET. You can binge the whole thing in one go - the episodes are showing back to back at 8pm, 9pm and 10pm.
Episode 1 features sharks such as tigers, whites, sixgills and threshers. In this episode we take a look at the super senses of sharks and what makes them one of the ocean’s top predators.
