Episodes on this DVD include:

The Food Chain Game
Aviva wants to build a food web for the African Savannah, so she devises a game and Chris and Martin accept the challenge! They will each start as a blade of grass and climb to the top of the food chain in a game of “Creature Power Suit Creature Tag.”
Creature Power Challenge
After getting caught in the middle of a tussle between a grumpy rhino and an outraged elephant, Martin and Chris decide to have a contest to decide what’s stronger – elephant or rhino powers. 
 
WILD KRATTS transforms the Kratt Brothers, creators of the award-winning “Kratts’ Creatures” and Emmy-winning “Zoboomafoo,” into animated versions of themselves, allowing the real-life zoologists to visit wild animals in their little-seen habitats and showcase key science concepts along the way. From elephants using physics to suck gallons of water with their trunks to a fleet of peregrine falcons that harness the force of gravity to speed through the air, each episode of WILD KRATTS presents age-appropriate science inspired by the natural abilities of the animals that the Kratt Brothers – and young viewers – meet. WILD KRATTS airs daily on PBS KIDS (check local listings).
