"I WAS PREY" RETURNS FOR AN EXHILIRATING AND DRAMATIC ALL-NEW SEASON THIS SUMMER

I WAS PREY recounts haunting, true stories of people who survived life or death situations after coming face to face with an animal with the potential to kill. Each individual story emphasizes how life can change in an instant, and the strength victims gain in these moments that change their lives forever. The all-new season premieres Wednesday, August 14th at 10 PM ET/PT.

This series demonstrates how animals can be unpredictable, especially when we are in their territory. Through emotional, first-person accounts of these frightening encounters the survivors share the profound and ever-lasting effect that is left on their lives, often sharing that they have come away with a greater respect for the natural world and a renewed sense of purpose in their own lives. The new seasons features stories of encounters with sharks, snakes, hippos, elephants mountain lions and many other potentially deadly creatures that remind us it's an animal world and we just live in it.

All previous seasons and episodes of I WAS PREY are available in their entirety on the Animal Planet GO app.
