Season two kicks off with the team trying to rescue Jamie, who’s been hiding out in some kind of compound with a strange man and her pet leopard — the one with the DNA that might hold the key to curing this whole animal crisis. Later, a shocking mutation is discovered which puts one of the team members at risk. Our money’s on Jackson. The guy got a pretty nasty baboon bite last season that was never checked out.
