Bushwhacked! - Series 3

Mint Pictures, 2015

Kayne is ready to brave Kamil’s new round of bigger and bolder adrenalin-fuelled outback missions in Bushwhacked! - Series 3.

Bushwhacked! follows Wiradjuri boy, Kamil Ellis, and Kayne Tremills, as they traverse remote corners of Australia in search of weird and wonderful wildlife, Indigenous rites and rituals, and (of course) adrenalin-fuelled, dramatic missions.

In Series 3, Kamil has drawn up a list of challenges set to send his co-host more than a little green, including; a matchmaking mission involving the world’s most venomous snake; a wade through croc-infested waters to catch a rare Freshwater Pygmy Crocodile; an unexpected brush with a Bull Shark; and the nigh-impossible task of spotting the extremely rare Albino Kangaroo.
