Predators of the Savuti
Directed by Kathryn PasternakIn the heart of Botswana's legendary Savuti, where predator and prey clash in a never-ending battle for survival, Predators of the Savuti delivers an unfiltered look at nature's fiercest hunters. This gripping documentary follows the daily struggles of lions, hyenas, wild dogs, cheetahs, leopards, and jackals as they navigate a shifting landscape shaped by scarcity, competition, and the return of water to the once-dry Savuti Channel. For decades, Savuti's predators have ruled an unforgiving battleground. A kill is never secure-rival hunters lurk, waiting for the perfect moment to steal a meal. Hyenas harass wild dogs, lions scatter scavengers, and even the swift cheetah is not immune to the dangers of the wild. But when heavy rains flood the region for the first time in 25 years, territories are split, hunting strategies must change, and the balance of power is upended. With space dwindling and competition intensifying, unlikely alliances form, old rivalries flare, and every predator must adapt-or die. From daring hunts to dramatic face-offs, Predators of the Savuti captures the raw essence of survival in one of Africa's most extraordinary wildlife arenas. Who will rise, and who will fall in this ever-evolving fight for dominance?
