Default Big Cat's Week On BBC 1

Has any Scoobynetter been watching this?Never been a one to watch wildlife programmes but having an intrest in big cats, i thought i would have to watch this.Watching these big cats in there natural environment has been amazing top marks to the beeb for this one.
Watching the various big cats and there groups was amazing,was on tenderhooks watching the young Cheetah cub as that big Baboon closed in was nailbiting.
So has anybody else been watching this ? and what was your thoughts?

That was done on purpose just to keep you on your toes I can also tell you that there would be no way you`d find me in the middle of the jungle with lions roaming around me.

lt did what all good Cheetah do and hid in the long grass ... the stupid monkey soon moved along, much like a Lion later on whom, it seems, was preoccupied with finding his pride and just happened to pass dangerously close!

Great programme although I've had to stop my cats from watching it as they were getting delusions of grandeur

Yeah fine I'm used to it. Come home with a new scratch everyday. Hah!

Believe it or not kittens are the worst as they have claws like needles because they are so fine and small.
