Wild Tanzania - Season 1

Africa's Great Rift Valley snakes through the boundaries and national parks where over 25,000 large animal species thrive in the bordering plains--from gazelles to hyenas, buffalo to cheetahs. The predators and their prey share the same grounds of the Serengeti, and the plains are one of the most exciting places on Earth to witness the circle of life in action.

The African acacia woodland and grasslands are home to many animals, including a spotted feline known for its speed and grace. Queen of the Hunt follows a cheetah mother with her five cubs as she struggles to raise them to adulthood, going on dangerous hunts to provide food and protecting the vulnerable young cubs from lions and other predators.

In East Africa, the hippopotamus and the Nile crocodile share a home along the riverbanks. Both creatures need water, and when parts of the river slowly evaporate, wet spaces are at a premium. While hippos and other animals stagnate in crowded pools to keep cool, crocs dig caves as shelters. This is a look at the ongoing battle to survive the clashes within their own species.

Saving Paradise Islands follows the dedication of conservationists who protect some of the most amazing marine locations of Tanzania: the islands Chumbe, Maziwe, and Fanjove.
