- DirectorDereck JoubertStarsJeremy IronsFifty years ago there were close to half-a-million lions in Africa. Today there are around 20,000. To make matters worse, lions, unlike elephants, which are far more numerous, have virtually no protection under government mandate or through international accords. This is the jumping-off point for a disturbing, well-researched and beautifully made cri de coeur from husband and wife team Dereck and Beverly Joubert, award-winning filmmakers from Botswana who have been Explorers-in-Residence at National Geographic for more than four years. Pointing to poaching as a primary threat while noting the lion's pride of place on the list for eco-tourists-an industry that brings in 200 billion dollars per year worldwide-the Jouberts build a solid case for both the moral duty we have to protect lions (as well as other threatened "big cats," tigers among them) and the economic sense such protection would make. And when one takes into account the fact that big cats are at the very top of the food chain-and that their elimination would wreak havoc on all species below them, causing a complete ecosystem collapse-the need takes on a supreme urgency.
- StarsDavid AttenboroughDavid Attenborough narrates the lives of four growing tiger cubs using footage collected by hidden-camera-carrying elephants. Over two years, the elephants help capture the most intimate portrayal of tigers ever filmed.
- StarsColin Stafford-JohnsonPassionate English conservationist Collin Stafford-Johnson and his Indian local friend - Hindi interpreter Salim started a unique documentary on a tiger family in Ranthambhore National Park, an abandoned royal fort in in Rajastan, putting the focus on exceptionally bright and inquisitive male cub 'Broken Tail'. It took a tragic turn when the tiger youngster went missing for over a year, only to be found killed by a train. The film mainly shows how the probably hopeless plight of tiger - and wider nature preservation in India, with its expanding population and economic space use, essentially caused the drama.
