Buggin&#39; with Ruud 12: Amazon Kill or Cure

Buggin' with Ruud 12: Amazon Kill or Cure

Synopsis:
Travelling in the Amazon is not easy. If the climate and terrain don't get you, the bugs will. But for Bugman Ruud Kleinpaste it's all worth it because he's on a mission: to meet with a remote community of tribes people, the Piaroans, who hunt and eat the world's biggest arachnid: the Goliath Bird Eating spider. A dramatic turn of events cuts short his adventure and brings him face to face with some of the worst experiences of his Buggin' career.
