Editorial Reviews

Australia released, PAL/Region 2.4 DVD: it WILL NOT play on standard US DVD player. You need multi-region PAL/NTSC DVD player to view it in USA/Canada: LANGUAGES: English ( Dolby Digital 2.0 ), English ( Subtitles ), WIDESCREEN (1.85:1), SPECIAL FEATURES: 2-DVD Set, Documentary, Featurette, Interactive Menu, Scene Access, SYNOPSIS: In the heart of Kenya's magnificent Masai Mara, three specialist wildlife teams observe the daily lives and adventures of Africa's big cats. The focus is on individual families: a pride of lions, a cheetah mother and her cubs, and the elusive leopard. A very personal relationship develops between the humans and animals as the filmmakers record their daily routines and ups and dawns. The unfolding stories are intercut into a compelling story of life in the wild, the struggle for survival, battles over territory, the search for food and shelter and the perils of raising cubs with predators all around. These unmissable big cat adventures presented in stripped, soap opera-style storytelling promise high-octane action. ...Big Cat Week - 2-DVD Set ( Big Cat Diary )

This review is from: Big Cat Week - 2-DVD Set ( Big Cat Diary ) [ NON-USA FORMAT, PAL, Reg.2.4 Import - Australia ] (DVD)

Why is it so hard for the producers to put this GREAT series in a
USA format??? It is an exelcent show and I always watch when it's on. Come on guys get with the program so we in the USA can buy our
copy. I'm sure there are LOTS of people out there waiting.

I really love this show. It has to be one of the best documentaries on these animals that I have ever watched. But it is a bit frustrating that the series hasn't been put out in US format. There are so many people watching it over here that it would be nice to be able to buy it rather than having to try to tvio it and hope you can get all the episodes in order.

Does anyone know if it will be put out in US format?

Golly, why can't they offer this incredible series in Region 1 (US) format?!!??!!??!!

I have been watching reruns of this series for months now and make sure I TiVo even those I've seen a while ago, that's how much I love this series. The filmmakers and commentators are sincere and highly involved with their particular cats although they know never to interfere no matter how tough it can get to stay out of what happens.

This is such great film-making that deserves better treatment than only a non-US format offering.
