Stream Season 1 now with KPBS Passport! Over six new episodes, an elite team of wildlife filmmakers returns to Botswana’s breathtaking Okavango Delta to follow the dramatic lives of its lions, leopards and cheetahs, day and night, in one of Africa’s last wildernesses.

Brad has found Lediba the leopard, and she’s not happy — a lone male lion has stolen her meal. Having not eaten for several days and her cub now reliant on meat, she’s not leaving. As night falls and Greg joins Brad, Lediba chooses to undertake a highly risky move; using the cover of darkness she sneaks past the resting lion and steels her meal back while his back is turned.

President Trump lashed out on social media late Sunday against ABC and NBC, putting the nation's top broadcast regulator once more at the center of his culture wars.

Pobe’s cubs are no longer reliant on her milk; now weened, they need meat to sustain them. Rea and Anna follow in behind and as the cubs play, Pobe takes an opportunity to hunt. Zebra and antelope scatter as she charges out of cover to successfully bring down a meal for the three of them.

Greg is with some of the young Xudum pride lionesses, including new lion mum Serami and her two tiny cubs. Their rest is broken by elephants — who do not like to share any space with lions. The lionesses are no match for the elephants, which leaves the cubs exposed and in danger.

Intruding male coalition “The Rogue Boys” catch up with Xudum pride mums Matho, Naledi and Tsebe, and their nine cubs. But the males get more than they bargain for as the mothers meet them head-on.
