Africa's Super Seven - Part 1
I do not own this video
Good quality images, rapid 24 hour overview.
Seven different species of animals: lion, hyena, leopard, cheetah, elephant, buffalo, rhino live in the same land.
Sometimes entertaining, sometimes sad, well, wildlife documentary.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Africa's Super Seven
(2008)
On the northern bank of the Sand River in the Mala-Mala Game Reserve in South Africa, seven magnificent creatures reside in an area the size of Manhattan Island. Tracking them for 24 hours we reveal the invisible threads that bind them together in a never-ending daily drama. This action-packed film will show how seven individual stories become one, how the animals move in and out of one another's lives in the course of a single day. Sometimes their encounters happen just by chance, at other times they are intent on stalking each other down. In all cases whenever they meet the encounter is always riveting.
Each animal has different strengths, even some weaknesses, but seeing them in action is always impressive. Tracking them through one day and one night we witness their dealings with the neighbours from hell, staking their territory, stalking the same prey, risking their lives and cautiously interacting with or avoiding each other. This is a privileged and rare glimpse into the complex lives of Africa's Super Seven.
Each species has its own vital role to play in this unfolding 24-hour drama. There is no room for the weak and in the African bush there's only one rule: the biggest, strongest, fastest and smartest survive.
As amazing as these animals are, they all have their Achilles heel too, and occasionally our story includes a fight for survival for them just like any other creature of the untamed African wild. For Africa's Super Seven there are no free lunches. Some will pay the ultimate price and some will even be lunch. Not for the faint hearted, this is a story of power, trust, hunger, desperation and elation -- an unforgettable adventure.
AMUR LEOPARD CONSERVATION
With 30 in the wild, it is the most endangered big cat species on Earth. ALTA is implementing a wide series of projects to save the species. Support at: http://www.amur-leopard.org
BIOSPHERE EXPEDITIONS
Their philosophy is based on a voluntarism principle, where you will spend your holidays helping scientists on a conservation project, see : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y_VTteMmrJ4
Here is their leopard conservation project in Namibia http://www.biosphere-expeditions.org/2-week-expeditions/wildlife-volunteering...

LEOPARD CONSERVATION STATUS (IUCN)
Near Threatened
AFRICAN LEOPARD, occurs across most of sub-Saharan Africa
INDIAN LEOPARD, is widely distributed on the Indian subcontinent
INDO-CHINESE LEOPARD, mainland Southeast Asia & southern China
All increasingly rare outside protected areas. Populations are decreasing
Endangered
PERSIAN LEOPARD, fewer than 871-1,290 mature ind., declining pop.
SRI LANKAN LEOPARD, Sri Lanka
NORTH CHINESE LEOPARD, Northern China
Critically Endangered
JAVAN LEOPARD, from 350-700 to 250 or even 100 mature individuals.
ARABIAN LEOPARD, less than 200 in 2006, pop. decreasing.
AMUR LEOPARD, 30 in the wild, most endangered big cat on Earth.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
HUMAN THREAT
Mainly habitat loss. But leopards are also:
killed for commercial reasons (fur, others), leopard-human conflict, hunted for fun. Kept unfree (zoos..., in small cages without vegetation + exhibited all day to another species). Used as tourist attractions. Petted. And surely others.
