On the shores of Botswana’s Gomoti River, Africa’s three Big Cats have made themselves at home. This summer, as some embark on a journey to parenthood; others are nearing its end. An aging lion has his hands full with new cubs, and rivals that could kill them; a cheetah mother is racing to get her five cubs to independence, while a male leopard embarks on a bumpy journey to fatherhood. Winter floods bring opportunity, and tragedy to the lions; and
challenge the young cheetahs adjusting to life without their mother. In the woodlands nearby,
a leopard mother battles to protect her cubs against intruders. To succeed, all of these cats
must use their unique skills to avoid lethal encounters, outsmart rivals, and thrive in a crowded neighbourhood.
