In Tasmania, the crew of Animal Planet's new hit show, Danger Zone, is celebrating a discovery that will go into the history books forever...but not in the way they had all hoped. In Colorado, bodies are turning up at an alarming rate. And, in each case, man's best friend has acquired a taste for human flesh...Are the animals to blame for these deaths, or were the people merely a tasty after-thought?

They only know that they are sick and can feel something awful creeping just beneath their flesh. All of these things are symptoms of a bigger problem. One that will get under your skin...
