Leopards are solitary and territorial. Their movement through high-grass environments like Sabi Sands is characterized by a low-profile, energy-efficient gait designed for stalking and territorial patrol.

Predators: The Survivor — A Tiger Shark with a Broken Jaw (Maldives)

Most of us have a specific image of what defines an apex shark—speed, power, and dominance. But off the coast of Fuvahmulah, I spent time with Luana, a resident tiger shark navigating the blue with a severe, permanent jaw injury. This film is a study of her quiet resilience and how she has adapted to a life that, by all logic, she shouldn't have been able to sustain.
