导演本·斯塔森和摄影师肖恩·麦克劳德·菲利普斯回到非洲南部，开始了一次全新的冒险之旅。被称作“狮语者”的动物行为学家凯文·理查德森与从小与大象一起长大的玛拉·道格拉斯·汉密尔顿带领观众以旅行的方式穿过了地球上景色最壮丽的地方：从纳米比亚风景如画的海岸沙丘的沙漠，路过堪称自然奇观的火山口，到达叹为观止的维多利亚瀑布和乞力马扎罗之巅。 　　在这次旅程中，你能与狮子、猎豹、美洲豹、黑犀牛和大象们近距离的亲密接触。这是一辈子一次的旅行，所以让我们做好准备，一起进入真正的没有围墙保护的非洲原野。 Filmmaker Ben Stassen and cinematographer Sean MacLeod Phillips return to southern Africa for a whole new adventure. Animal behaviorist Kevin Richardson - "The Lion Whisperer" - guides audiences on an extraordinary journey across the most spectacular sceneries on earth: from the picturesque coastal desert dunes of Namibia, through the natural wonder of the Ngorongoro crater and then on to the breathtaking Victoria Falls. The film delivers startlingly close encounters with lions, cheetahs, leopards, black rhinoceros and elephants. This is the trek of a lifetime, so get ready to be immersed in the real wild Africa - where there are no fences for your protection.

If you happen to cross their path, a face-to-face encounter always leaves a big impression.
Although the Chobe river is less than 300 km from the Okavango, there are no roads crossing the delta, so we have to drive around the Southern part of the flood plains.
It will take us two days to get there.
In the 1960's, the government of Botswana embarked on an ambitious project to protect the country's wilderness.
Ironically, the program has been so successful that the authorities now have to cope with increasing elephant numbers.
Their population has increased from 40,000 in the 1980s to 130,000 today.
The large herds that concentrate along the river have destroyed most of the trees in the area and human-elephant conflict is on the rise.
There is no easy solution to this problem.
The Botswana government is against culling and translocating mass numbers of elephants to other parts of Africa where their numbers are dwindling.
It is expensive and impractical.
If nature is left to take its course, a severe drought could wipe out thousands of elephants with starvation.
But the future of the elephant is in the balance.
With heavy poaching for ivory in the rest of Africa, I believe it is only a matter of time before this population too is affected.
It's getting late, we should look for a place to camp.
Not too close to the water though, there are huge crocodiles in the Chobe.
Let's check out the sunset first.
Yeah, look at that.
A picture perfect scene, with elephants in the foreground.
Stunning man, stunning.
The next day, we drive along the bank of the Chobe, hoping to observe large herds of elephants.
I have been around wild elephants since I was a child, but this is my first visit to Chobe.
It is not unusual here to see scores of elephant families numbering in the hundreds gather along the river.
These impalas are unusually relaxed.
Yeah, in most places they just bolt off in front of an approaching vehicle.
It is a bit early in the day for the elephants to come to the river, but there is always something to see along the Chobe.
