Night of the Lion (2010x64)

Air date: Sep 08, 2010

It is only once the sun has gone down beyond the horizon that the deadly lion truly comes to life, using scent and sound to stalk and kill its prey. But this night-time hunting routine has always been virtually impossible to capture on film - until now. With the aid of new light-enhancing, heat-seeking technology, see how the starlight camera transforms pitch-black wilderness into an array of vibrant colors. Observe lions and their prey in crystal-clear detail as our team, at long last, gets the chance to properly study these untamed predators during their most active period. This film demonstrates not only how groundbreaking equipment can revolutionize wildlife program making, but also the terrifying precision of the hunting lion after dark. Pierce through the darkness and encounter a hidden world previously unseen by human eyes.
