Wildlife photographer Valter Torri has always been fascinated by the unique atmosphere of Africa. In this film, colours are bright, the sounds of nature ring out - you can almost smell the dusty heat. Every frame is dramatic - the fiery sky, the flowing river and the elegant wildlife. But for Valter, this beauty is always tinged with longing - how to reconcile the modern world in which he lives with the timeless majesty of nature.

A strange white lion, a jaundiced yellow crocodile and an albino baboon are just a few of the colourful creatures we meet in Africa’s Outsiders. How do our heroes survive, when nature has removed the camouflage they depend on to hunt and hide? And if you thought they had problems, how on earth does a striped cheetah cope?
The Peter Lamberti Family Trust/Off the Fence
At sunset, the mysterious world of the night unfolds. The air is filled with the sound of courting frogs loudly croaking, whilst nearby a hungry heron hunts for its next meal. Daytime animals get ready for their night’s rest, as a hedgehog awakes and crosses the garden. Just then, a female fox emerges from her lair. Let the chase begin!
A young female crocodile sets her sights on the strongest male, but he’s intent on attracting the older females. Patiently she waits, watching his mating ritual. Against the odds, she mates with him, but her babies are vulnerable to the other crocodiles. Can they survive or did she bite off more than she can chew?
Wild Side/The Peter Lamberti Family Trust/GTV/Off the Fence/GA&A
On the northern bank of the Sand River in the Mala-Mala Reserve live seven magnificent creatures. Clever, strong and deadly, they dominate their territory. Lion, elephant, buffalo, rhino, leopard, hyena and cheetah; each has different strengths and weaknesses. Tracking them for 24 hours reveals an extraordinary tale of adventure and a rare glimpse into the lives of Africa’s Super Seven.
The Peter Lamberti Family Trust/Off the Fence
We think we know big cats pretty well, but actually, we don’t. In this series, we take a look at the extraordinary prehistory of big cats and their ascent to world domination. How did these giant carnivores survive the ice age? Why did their territories change – with the jaguar once found in the UK, and the lion once a true worldwide phenomenon? Brand-new night vision systems and super slow-mo cameras take us on a tantalising trail of evidence to answer these questions.
