Kings of the Wild
S01E01Mexico - River Canyon
New Zealand hunter Josh James and British chef Matt Tebbutt travel to Copper Canyon in Northern Mexico. Five times bigger than the Grand Canyon, it's one of the most spectacular natural landscapes in the world, but also one of the harshest. They will be dropped into the remote wilderness and will test themselves against nature, taking only the bare minimum of a kit. Josh has a bow and arrow, a slingshot, machete and fish hooks, while Matt has just a cooking pot, knife and water bottle. Using these basic tools they hunt and forage for everything they need to survive for seven long days and nights. Their aim is not just to survive, but to eat the very best food they can. Matt finds an unfamiliar Mexican agave and does his best to turn it into a mouth-watering meal. Josh goes hunting for the Canyon's famous wild turkeys and even manages to snare a raccoon, but disaster strikes when Matt begins cooking.
