In a few small pockets of the world there are people who still have to hunt to stay alive. Now in new series, The Hunger, modern day British hunter and gatherer Guy Grieve is determined to discover their secrets. With hunting and gathering, now becoming a dying tradition, taking with it an encyclopaedia of knowledge, skills and courage that can never be recaptured, Guy's mission is to seek out the last of the world's hunters, to learn from their unique bond with nature and to join in on the action. Driven by hunger even today, people must follow the food trail and do anything to survive, even if that means crawling along the ocean floor during massive waves to scavenge for seafood; climbing the same trees as predatory tigers to share food; or outrunning exotic antelope in the native African fields. Join Guy as he unlocks the mysteries behind the ingenious and resourceful ways in which different cultures find, capture, cultivate and eat food around the world.
