Having come face-to-fanged face with a sabre-toothed tiger, Eve, Sam and Ty did not simply seek cover in the big, metal ambulance (as one TVLine reader reco’d), but instead decided to make a run for it — because one of the show’s mysteries apparently is how humans traversing unfamiliar terrain can outpace apex predators in their natural environment.La Brea Season 1 Download
And yet escape they did, by fending off one tiger with shots from Ty’s gun and then scrambling down to a cliffside ledge to evade another.
