Description
Experience stunning aerial and natural history cinematography while flying with African vultures. This magnificently filmed saga presents nature's most misunderstood creatures as an integral part of Africa's bounty. If not for these scavengers, the plains would be an immense graveyard. From the mighty lion to the lowly dung beetle, each creature has a place in Africa's circle of life. Rise above the tooth-and-claw drama of the Serengeti, and meet the griffin vulture- nature's undertaker-a reviled but vital bird of prey biding its time until feasting opportunities arise. Any unlucky carcass is dispatched in a matter of minutes by a feeding frenzy that attracts jackals and hyenas along with vultures. Scavenging insects swarm over the remaining bones and horns. Time-lapse photography and unique point-of-view filming highlight stunning beauty, while capturing images of carnage not for the faint of heart.
Target Audience
