Description

Welcome to The Big Cat People podcast! We're Jonathan and Angela Scott, award-winning wildlife photographers, authors and conservationists. We have made our name documenting the lives of lions, leopards and cheetahs in the Masai Mara National Reserve in Kenya.

In the ninth episode of Big Cat Diary Uncut, titled '2008: A Cheetah Mother Called Shakira,' we continue our captivating series. Big Cat Live, a highly anticipated commission by the BBC, features night footage using thermal imaging cameras to track the Marsh Pride and Honey's Boys hunting zebras. Saba takes a sabbatical to give birth, introducing Jackson ole Looseyia as a talented presenter. The dedicated Big Cat website, coordinated by Penny Hunter, allows our audience to stay connected with 24/7 updates. Shakira steals the show with her adorable cubs, while Jackson explores Bella's leopard dynasty and Simon follows the Marsh Pride. Big Cat Live's success surpasses Who Wants To Be A Millionaire, marking the end of an era.

This podcast series is a continuing effort to educate and inspire our audience. If you'd like to learn more about us, or to check out our latest collection of educational ebooks, please visit our website: www.bigcatpeople.com.
