Big Cats 24/7

The Big Cats 24/7 team begins a six-month expedition following lions, leopards and cheetahs in the Okavango Delta. A huge wildfire threatens the big cats, and the team.

The Okavango Delta is transformed by the arrival of the flood, bringing new challenges for the big cats. The lion cubs experience water and the danger it brings for the first time.

Lion numbers continue to grow, but there’s not enough food to go around. A lioness mum risks her life to feed her five cubs. And Xudum’s newborn leopard cubs face a deadly threat.

With the dominant males gone, trouble looms as intruder lions close in on the Xudum prides young cubs. Leopard Lediba searches for her missing cub after a tense encounter, while Pobe the cheetah must defend her familys food from bigger cats

Reunited, the Xudum pride lionesses struggle to feed their young - one cub is starving. As male leopards are pushed closer together by rising floodwaters, leopard mum Lediba and cheetah mum Pobe each fight to keep their cubs alive.

A new generation of big cats rises in the Okavango Delta. First-time lion mum Serami protects her cubs while Mathata steps up to feed the pride. Pobe and Bo return, and as Ledibas cub grows in confidence, she vanishes.
