The pressure is on for Pobe to make a kill. She’s the only resident female cheetah in the Xudum area, but survival is still hard, even for a smart and experienced hunter like her. Cheetahs may be fast, but it takes energy, and they need time to recover after a chase. Fortunately, lying low is also the perfect hunting strategy when pursuing impalas.

Big Cats 24/7
Wildlife Cinematographers Gordon Buchanan, Vianet Djenguet and Anna Dimitriadis join forces with the Natural History Film Unit, Botswana led by Brad Bestelink and his local camera team. Following individual lions, cheetahs and leopards for six months, over two extreme seasons, this documentary shows their battle to survive in an increasingly challenging world. From unprecedented wildfire to flood and extreme drought, the cats and camera crew are tested to their limits. A revolution in low light camera technology means the series showcases previously unseen behavior at night; cutting-edge drones keep track of the big cat’s movements like never before, and combining the raw endeavor of an expedition with premium natural history footage gives the show a contemporary new approach.
