Africa's Wild Wonders

The savannah's changing seasons are a spectacle to witness. Here the seasons rise and fall in a cycle as old as time where the dry dusty land gives way to plentiful lushness. We witness these seasons from the inhabitants who live here, the baboons, elephants and predators in one of Africa's most famous wild spaces, the Kruger National Park.

Viewed by most of the world as opportunistic scavengers, Hyenas are actually one of Africa's top predators who are more successful at killing than lions! They are one of natures most amazing animals with a complex social structure where the top animal is actually the alpha female!

Nothing says Africa like herd of elephants roaming across the plains! This episode is all about the many! Magnificent elephants in one of nature's largest natural places. We spend time with them as these social animals eat, fight, search for and find water. A beautiful space with nature's gentle giants.

Baboons are one of Africa's most adaptive animals and this episode shows us their versatility as we see them in all of Africa's seasons. Freezing in the rains, cooling off from the heat by swimming in crocodile infested rivers, foraging in the cool shady vales and playing, always finding time to play!

Africa's top predator is the wild dog. Related to the wolf these carnivores are celebrated in this ep-isode as we look at their highly social behaviour in one of Africa's wildest and most predator dense areas, the Kruger National Park. Here up to 8 packs of wild dogs stick to their different territories or home ranges while hunting at dawn and dusk to keep their numbers strong.

The lions of Africa are the survivors of this harsh land. We take a look at the family structure and the deep bonds that develop between members of a pride. A very different episode as we take a beautiful and gentle look at Africa's most iconic animal.
