"The Most Extreme" is a long-running documentary TV series on the American cable television network, Animal Planet. It first aired on July 1, 2002. Each episode focuses on a specific animal feat, such as strength, speed, flirtation, appendages, diet, etc., and examines and ranks 10 animals which portray extreme or unusual examples of that quality. The rankings are not arrived at by a scientifically rigorous process; they serve only to give a broad depiction.
| 1. | Tapeworm) Lives in humans, unknowingly sometimes, stealing food. |
| 2. | Nycteribiidae) Relies on bats to avoid falling down, where predatory bugs await. |
| 3. | Remora) Hitches rides on larger marine animals, such as whale sharks. |
| 4. | Ear mite) Tears a moth's eardrum and lays eggs there. |
| 5. | Pearlfish) Lives in sea cucumbers. |
| 6. | Tuatara) Resides in Fairy Prion nests, and sometimes eats their eggs! |
| 7. | Komodo Dragon (female)) Lays her eggs in mounds made by scrubfowls. |
| 8. | Arctic Fox) Eats polar bear's leftovers. |
| 9. | Catfish) Steals and eats cichlid eggs and swaps them with their own so the cichlids end up hatching the catfishes' eggs! |
