The cheetah cubs provide frustration for their mother and the lions hunt warthog.

Simon King and Jonathan Scott conclude their study of the Masai Mara's lions, leopards and cheetahs, with sightings of Half-Tail, Shadow, Amber and the Marsh pride.

Simon King sees two sides of the cheetah family: Amber's frustration at her cubs' reckless hunting behaviour, and their life as a happy and contented family unit. He also witnesses one of the most extraordinary yet harrowing of all natural events: a major wildebeest crossing of the Mara river, with huge crocodiles lying in ambush.Jonathan Scott finds Shadow the leopard in good shape, having taken over her mother Half-Tail's territory. Later on, he has an emotional encounter with Half-Tail herself, and her little cubs. After their close encounter with buffaloes, the Marsh pride of lions appear to be on the road to continued success and go hunting a warthog.
