Big Cat Tales

Jonathan and Angie Scott and Jackson Ole Looseyia star in this natural history series, which documents present-day prides and families of the lions, leopards and cheetahs of the Masai Mara National Reserve in Kenya.

Last seen on television in the U.S. beginning in 1999, Jonathan returns with Angie and Jackson to take you on new journeys that will submerge you into the world of big cats.

This includes the memorable Marsh Pride of lions, for a first-hand look as their families evolve, cubs grow and lives ebb and flow, bringing the mix of joy and excitement that make these big cats so irresistible.

In the series premiere, "Rebirth in the Mara": Jonathan and Angie return to the Masai Mara to reconnect with their beloved Marsh Pride, generations of lions they have been following for more than 40 years.

New cubs have arrived as well as the pride's greatest threat - the buffalo. Jackson tracks the famous Mara cheetah, Malika, as she hunts to provide food for young cubs of her own.

Elusive leopard sightings are on the rise with several new characters emerging from the shadows. Jonathan seeks to find his favourite leopard, Bahati, and the three newborn cubs that have been sighted with her.

Throughout the season, remarkable big cat behaviour is documented through journeys of motherhood, play, survival and territorial battles that include the rarely observed bonding between mother leopard and cubs and a dramatic male impala hunting sequence.
