Join Chris Johns on a journey to Africa and the Okavango Delta in Botswana as he tracks a hungry cheetah mother and her five cubs. As the fastest land animal, cheetahs can go from 0 to 50 mph in less than three seconds. They rely on their speed to overcome their prey, and to survive. Johns takes you on the hunt - as the cheetah hunts for prey and as he tracks the elusive cheetah. Soon the cheetah family allows him to get close to them, and the face-to-face encounter that ensues is one of the most profound moments of his life. And you get to experience it with him. But Johns also accepts the responsibilty that comes with the privilege of this encounter: trying to save these endangered creatures and protect their habitat, which is severely threatened. Learn about cheetahs race for survival. Where once there were some 100,000 cheetahs in 44 countries, today there are between 12,000 and 15,000 cheetahs left, in only about 24-26 countries.
