First part of India and Nepal special on 'Born to be Wild'

This Sunday, Born to be Wild takes us to exciting wildlife adventures in India and Nepal!

Doc Nielsen visits the world's second most populous country, India, where Hindu residents have a unique relationship with animals. Doc Nielsen's first stop is a temple where rats are revered. Around 20,000 rats roam Karni Mata temple freely. Doc Nielsen immerses with the Hindus’ peculiar yet amazing relationship with the rats, while trying to conquer his own biggest fear. Unknown to many, only rats can frighten the often fearless Doc Nielsen!

Meanwhile, guest and original Born to be Wild host Romi Garduce is on a mission to be among the first Filipinos to climb Mt. Ama Dablam, a mountain in the Himalayas known by mountaineers as a more difficult expedition climb than Mt. Everest. To prepare for the expedition, Romi warms up in Mt. Makiling in Laguna, where he is greeted by hundreds of blood-sucking forest leeches.
