Battle of the Alphas - Season 1

Madagascar is home to strange animals not found anywhere else on Earth; when these animals fight for supremacy, their battles are just as strange, from weird neck-wrestling weevils to ring tailed lemur moms that go into battle with baby on board.

Australia is home to an eclectic array of creatures, and the ways to succeed as an alpha are just as diverse; the beach turns into a dueling ground and the outback becomes a boxing ring, as animals face off with their own kind.

The African savanna is an epic landscape, and whether it's head-bashing hippos, hormone-crazed elephants or dueling lions, battles that rage on the savanna are just as epic.

Welcome to India - a land of exotic animals and exotic warfare; monkeys stage dusty dust-ups, blackbucks wage open war on the open plains, and peacock dandies swing switchblades: these are colorful battles worthy of a vibrant land.

Massive elephant seals go nose to nose to win the title of beach master; giant petrels earn the nickname "murderous garbagemen"; a female humpback goes to extremes to protect her calf from amorous males.

Canada, where summer is short and time is tight, any time is the right time to fight; the mighty North provides the setting for bison, bald eagles and polar bears to wage some of the most heavy-duty fighting in the animal kingdom.

Witness animals struggling with their own kind over the choicest real estate. Learn to fight dirty with a guanaco, head-butt a fellow iguana to claim a piece of prime territory, and meet a hermit crab who forcibly evicts a tenant from its shell.

With real-life dueling dragons, giant sumo-wrestling beetles, street-fighting monkeys, and sea turtles that play king of the hill - on top of another sea turtle, Southeast Asia boasts a wide range of wildlife warriors.

Bighorn rams rattle the mountaintops; Brown bears battle, desperate to fatten up for winter; Sharp-tailed grouse shake their tail-feathers; Wild stallions rumble with beauty and grace.

From the Highlands to the Alps, Europe's evocative landscapes are the backdrop for epic wildlife drama; normally stoic red deer go wild during the rut; wolf packs clash over territory, and foxes do the foxtrot but it's not as nice as it sounds.

Wildebeest battle for herd hierarchy, meerkats live the thug life, floppy fish fight it out on land and locusts give up their vegetarian ways in a frenzy of cannibalism; it all happens on the wild and wide-open landscape of South Africa.

The latitudes south of the Sahara offer vastly different battlegrounds for a wide range of warriors; male giraffes swing their heads like wrecking balls, zebras boast the most powerful kick in the animal kingdom, and chimpanzee warfare is familiar.
