ShareThisIn this National Geographic program shot over the course of three years, filmmakers Dereck and Beverly Joubert track the fascinating life of a young leopard named Legadema, capturing the cub's childhood in the forests of Botswana via flashback and following her through to adulthood. Segments focus on important learned behaviors that prepare the once defenseless leopard for life on her own, including the proper way to hunt and kill large game.
