Series of 4 docs. Each episode follow 3 modern British women as they travel to, and become immersed in, tough, traditional male worlds. Episode 3 – Brazil: Deep within the Brazilian interior is the Pantanal. Here everything is on a gigantic scale; the ranches are limitless, the cattle count is in the hundreds of thousands, the wildlife is some of the most diverse on the planet. Jaguars, alligators and venomous snakes are the daily hazards the Pantaneiros (cowboys who work this land) face.
