Summary Host Jeff Corwin teams up with NOAA, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and divers from Georgia Aquarium as they dive deep - 120 feet deep - into the stormy waters off Savannah Georgia in the effort to capture and/or eradicate lionfish - an animal with no natural predator outside the Indo-Pacific area that is it's natural home. Released into the waters off the US East Coast by unsatisfied pet owners and the destruction of an aquarium by hurricane Andrew, the unabated proliferation of lionfish threatens life on and around the local coral reefs. What's more, Lionfish are a formidable adversary as their venomous tentacles are loaded with a toxin whose potency makes the fish an excellent predator and dangerous to fishermen and divers.
