Description: "Welcome back to Survival of the Fittest! Here, animals of all sizes and skills compete to see who can come up with the most useful and clever design for a product based on something in the natural world. Today's theme is: Medical Marvels! Dive in with Mosquito, Sea Urchin, Octopus, and more as they present inventions inspired by their own unique anatomy. From sticky suction cups to water-repellent skin, who will impress the sharks the most?"--
