Be the Creature
Be the Creature is a creation of the Kratt Brothers. A wildlife series designed to immerse both the brothers and the viewers in the world of animals, Unlike other Kratt Brothers programs, Kratts' Creatures and Zoboomafoo and Wild Kratts, Be the Creature is oriented towards a teen or adult audience. The brothers place themselves in the thick of the animal world, sometimes in high-intensity or dangerous situations. The series also features some graphic footage in an effort to portray life in the wild truthfully. A second season entitled, Be the Creature 2, began in 2005. The show is airing on National Geographic Wild. A third season entitled, " Be The Creature 3", began in 2007, still airing on the same network.
