Last week we introduced you to the exciting new series on #AfricaBBC (see: Africa on BBC Knowledge: first episode). For those of you that missed out, the #AfricaBBC series is taking us on an epic five-part journey through Africa’s natural history, exploring the contrasting beauty of the Kalahari, the Savannah, Congo, The Great Cape, and culminates in an exploration of the Sahara.
The first episode was mind-blowing, showcasing the beautiful Namib Desert dunes, black rhinos by night and rare Kalahari leopards.
Episode two showcases the vastness that the Savannah has to offer – from the tops of the snow-capped peaks to the bottom of the steamy swamps – with all that lies between. You may have read about the agama lizards that use their stealth to steal flies from the faces of lions – however #AfricaBBC lets you experience the true courage of these lizards as never seen before. We also witness the dramatic and emotional journey of a herd of elephants as they battle to survive the harsh conditions of their surroundings.
If you need a little more inspiration, check out this short clip from the upcoming episode. It features lazy lions, brave lizards and some incredible wildlife footage like you’ve never seen before.
To be part of the action, make sure you are watching the second episode – Savannah – Sunday, 24 February 2013 at 18h00 on BBC Knowledge – DStv Channel 184.
