It's known as the coliseum of the wild: Savute. It's a small tract of land in the corner of Africa's vast desert, where three hunting zones meet at a dead end swamp surrounded by dense, thorny desert. Here, big cats meet big prey in the harshest of landscapes, and success depends on how well the predators adapt to the tough environment around them.

Clouds are forming over the dry plains of the Serengeti and the dinner bell is about to ring for the big cats of Ndutu. See how a pride of lions and two cheetah families tailor their hunt to the landscape and use it to their deadly advantage.
