Comments: Nicely restrained narration with a few humor points: “In the wild there are no fat lions”. Also some great catches: The Flies and especially the kudu kill. Damn!

Would love this in HD except for the too many shots of Buffalo snot. Ugh. Sound is a little too cliche at times but over all a very pleasant doc

Summary: Life on the savannah of southern Tanzania is a study in contrast between rainy and dry seasons. When water is abundant, the wildebeest at the rivers provide food for the lion population, while the buffalo graze contentedly on the succulent grasses in the hills. The two great adversaries -- lion and buffalo -- can keep their distance
