Big Cats 24/7

Documentary movies and series about wildlife are always fascinating, especially those about lions. I appreciate all the good efforts of cameramen who document the life and behavior of lions, leopards and cheetahs and there is no denying their risky and arduous work. This series was supposed to be big cats, showcasing their behavior and daily lives in the wild. However, most of the time in this series has been wasted on unnecessary talking of cameramen (women). I really liked to see more of the big cats not the constant chatter of the cameramen. They could allocate a whole episode to the good work of cameraman. Thus, we could enjoy the lives of the majestic cats and appreciate the arduous work of the cameramen.

This 6 Part BBC Series of the Big Cats of the Botswana Ocovanta Delta is Brilliant. The presenters are educated and Provide much needed information about the Stars of the Show the BIG CATS THEMSELVES,

I was gripped about the Life & death these big cats experience on a daily basis, finding Food for themselves & their families, the hierachy,

I was invested in the lives of all the big cats, my favourite was Cudom the female Leopard, I won't spoil you with what happens but her Ups & Downs during the 6 months of filming, you can not but admire her.

The Camera work was amazing using MILITARY Grade Drones, Camera's & Night Time video. Gave a greater insight to these big cats.

Good nature show, but unfortunately let down by this odd over-emphasis on trying to make all the camera operators into stars of the show and turning that portion of the show into a reality show about their unentertaining hi-jinks that no one asked for. They do a fine job getting the shots themselves, which are fascinating at times, but most of them really lack the charisma to be stars. One in particular really seems love the spotlight a little too much, and tries to inject herself into every situation comments that were rarely insightful and often just tedious. There's a reason Attenborough does voice-overs: people want to see the animals, not endless cuts to the camera operators telling them "wow, this is like, crazy!" over and over again.

A team of wildlife documentary filmmakers is following the big cats of Okavango Delta in Botswana. Sure, there are the lions and the cheetahs. They are also dealing with the other animals of the grassland and the many challenges in the wild. They do night time filming with some old fashion night vision. Night time brings out some great hunting. It is a BBC production and this one has a lot of the people on camera organizing the filming. It is different from the other BBC nature shows and injects some excitement from the hunting. However, they really should make these people the human stars of the show. They need to work as hosts and there are too many of them.
