Writer:Marie Pilhan
Genre:BigCats
Duration:132 min
Comments: The one with "Broken Back" lion cub. Some very nice “lucky good” captures, like the one where the Mama Leopard catches the falling carcass her cub drops out of a tree

Surprised this isn't on IMDb. Three episodes:
01 Survival.School
02 Dangerous Playground
03 Hunting Lessons

... split among a lion pride, a leopard, a cheetah, some meerkats, and some hyenas. It's all very good, and very professional with a good story arc, crisp, clear photography, and a narrator who isn't annoying

I'd offer up 4 1/2 stars but I just have no interest in meerkats or hyenas

Summary: Takes viewers into the center of five animal families - lions, jackals, cheetahs, hyenas and meerkats - as they raise their young in the wilderness. Innovative camera techniques are used to follow the animals' tender, emotional and often stressful stories from the moment their babies are born through different stages in their maturity.
