PBS’s “Nature” takes us to Katavi National Park in Tanzania this Wednesday, taking us into a remote wilderness rarely seen on television. This isn’t your typical safari tour, though. “Katavi: Africa’s Fallen Paradise, Sanctuary” captures a unique and challenging period for the park’s inhabitants: a severe drought followed by unusually heavy rains.
The filmmakers, braving the elements, documented the impact of these extreme weather conditions on Katavi’s diverse wildlife. How do the animals adapt? Who thrives, and who struggles to survive? The episode examines the delicate balance of this ecosystem, revealing the resilience – and vulnerability – of nature in the face of unpredictable change.
Expect stunning visuals of the African landscape, highlighting the beauty and harsh realities of life in Katavi. From predators to prey, the episode provides an intimate look at the daily struggles and triumphs of survival in this “fallen paradise.”
Tune in to PBS on Wednesday, April 2nd at 8:00 PM.
