Nat Geo Wild will screen a ‘Big Cat Week’ from January 25-31, with seven documentaries each night at 8.30pm.
The 2021 version marks the 10th ‘Big Cat Week’ and highlights National Geographic Society’s commitment to conservation through its Big Cats Initiative, which supports on-the-ground research and effort to help protect Big Cats and their habitats.
Big cats are facing big challenges. Leopards now occupy just 25-37 percent of their historic range, and six of the nine subspecies of leopard are now in significant trouble.
For many big cat populations, extinctions are imminent due to habitat loss, degradation and conflicts with humans.
