They rule the darkness and invade our homes as we sleep. In a village in Brazil a vampire bat flies into a baby's nursery. In India, a restless sleeper provokes the krait, a snake whose venomous bite is five times as toxic as the cobra's. A foot-long South American centipede silently slips into the sheets and delivers an excruciating sting with needle-sharp legs that double as fangs. Witness these and other harrowing true-life stories of human encounters with the dangerous creatures of the night as you experience the dark side of nature. Amazon.com: After viewing this video, made for kids age 5 and up, you may never sleep on the floor again! Brave actors and their creepy-crawly and slithering counterparts reenact typical nocturnal encounters between night creatures and humans. The surprise pain and creepiness of the encounters is only intimated, but still, watching a foot-long centipede undulate closer and closer to a sleeping man's hand is enough to elicit cries of horror. This 60-minute video delivers a quick-paced array of images from around the world, offering not only a wealth of information on bugs and mammals, but broadening your little naturalist's geographic realm with stories from Brazil, India, and Madagascar. Though it plays up the creepy-crawly element that kids like, the voice of Betsy Ames reminds us that most animals don't prey on humans so the likelihood of a bite from a venomous krait is pretty unlikely. The various spooks from this real-life video can keep a kid's imagination engaged, but are grounded in the natural world. Parents will enjoy watching this video with their children, too--its pacing keeps you interested and ultimately a little bit more aware of the world that awakens after we go to sleep. --Gilia Angell Browse for similar items by category: Documentary - Genres - VHS - Video - General Nature & Wildlife - Special Interests - Genres - VHS - Video - Animals National Geographic - Television - Genres - VHS - Video - All Titles National Geographic - Television - Genres - VHS - Video - Favorite Animals National Geographic - Television - Genres - VHS - Video - Wildlife
