Big Cats, Small World

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.

Cub Camp

Judy and Roger Stearns, ordinary people with a little bit of land and a lot of heart, run Black Bear Rescue Manitoba. Every spring they welcome in orphaned black bear cubs to their 10-acre facility. All of the cubs arrive deeply traumatized and alone, with some cubs being so young that they are blind and helpless. But with the round-the-clock care provided by the Stearns, including bottle feeding at all hours, these baby bears gradually recover and even thrive. As they grow, they develop distinct personalities, and learn the skills they need to survive. And, in the fall, the group of healthy and confident cubs are ready to return to the wilderness, having grown up under the safe wing of CUB CAMP.
