The good, the bad and the ugly, the teacher, the lover, the fighter and the strong, silent type! Stars of a tense 24-hour drama with birth, death and everything in between. On the northern bank of the Sand River in the Mala-Mala Game Reserve in South Africa, seven magnificent creatures reside in an area the size of Manhattan Island. Tracking them for 24 hours we reveal the invisible threads that bind them together in a never-ending daily drama. This action-packed film will show how seven individual stories become one, how the animals move in and out of one another s lives in the course of a single day. Sometimes their encounters happen just by chance, at other times they are intent on stalking each other down. In all cases whenever they meet the encounter is always riveting. Each animal has different strengths, even some weaknesses, but seeing them in action is always impressive. Tracking them through one day and one night we witness their dealings with the neighbours from hell, staking their territory, stalking the same prey, risking their lives and cautiously interacting with or avoiding each other. This is a privileged and rare glimpse into the complex lives of Africa s Super Seven. Each species has its own vital role to play in this unfolding 24-hour drama. There is no room for the weak and in the African bush there s only one rule: the biggest, strongest, fastest and smartest survive. As amazing as these animals are, they all have their Achilles heel too, and occasionally our story includes a fight for survival for them just like any other creature of the untamed African wild. For Africa s Super Seven there are no free lunches. Some will pay the ultimate price and some will even be lunch. Not for the faint hearted, this is a story of power, trust, hunger, desperation and elation an unforgettable adventure.

Beautiful film of African animals
While this is not my very favorite film of African animals, and you might find the information rather rudimentary, it is beautifully filmed and a delight to watch. My ten year old grandson missed seeing a "kill" when we were on safari, so this should satisfy him (while perhaps be off putting to the squeamish). This would be a good addition to your dvds on Africa. Any with David Attenborough, of course, being first in line.

This video was not able to catch any hunting scene in whole. You will see the chase starts, and then the predator already had the prey pinned down. To connect the broken hunt, there are several flashes in the middle, which were cut from different hunts, and some were even shoot from a chasing camera behind a random prey. At the age of YouTube where amateurs can record the entire hunt uninterrupted, this professional video cannot do its homework left me feeling cheated. The 50 minute length is also too short. At $25 price, the disc is overrated and only deserves a 3-star.

Superb and sometimes shocking
Beautifully filmed, great background music, lots of action and stories of magnificent animals well told. A bit gruesome at times.One of the best Xive TV animal documentaries on Amazon Prime that I've seen so far.

Interesting but shallow. It presents seven African animals in a normal length film, therefore it dedicates not much time to each of them. Video quality is good. I have seen better films on African animals.

KILL ONE RESULTING IN THREE DEAD
A likeable 52 min ALL REGION DVD about the lives of Africas super seven--elephants-rhino--buffalo-- hyena--leopard--cheetah--lions--in the space of 24 hours. The program was split into eight scene sections-WHERE THE MAGNIFICENT SEVEN LIVE--WALLOW IN THE MUD--THE IMPALAS OF MALA MALA--THE HIGH GROUND--A NEW BIRTH--A DISTURBANCE IN THE BUSH--THE DAWN OF A NEW MORNING--ITS A GOOD DAY. I enjoyed the film although you could not see all the chases being completed, and at the time of writing this review the price seems quite expensive.
