For the past 40 years, the Chinese government has been
secretly working on an innovative zoo in Guangdong Province
to showcase a new creature they discovered in a deep
underground cave. Prior to the grand opening of the Great
Zoo of China, Chinese officials have invited a group of VIP
Americans -- including a U.S. ambassador to China, a New
York journalist, veterinarian/herpetologist expert Dr. CJ
Cameron and her photographer brother -- to preview the
spectacular legendary creatures in their unique
surroundings.
Even though highly sophisticated protective measures are in
place for everyone's safety from the beasts, it soon
becomes apparent the highly intelligent creatures have
their own agenda concerning the zoo and its visitors. What
was to be an entertaining, wondrous adventure turns into a
horrific nightmare. With the situation spiraling into total
chaos, the fate of the humans -- as well as the beasts -- is
in turmoil. Using her cunning knowledge and strong survival
instincts, CJ plays an important role in the eventual
outcome of the dreadful situation.
