Hot Spot

The heat is on for the world's biggest population of cheetahs. Namibia, in Southern Africa, is home to 3,000 cheetahs but here they face the greatest challenges. In the north, a remarkable family of seven cheetahs struggle to survive the endless desert droughts on the scorched pans of Etosha. Meanwhile on the ranchland of the south, a lone female tries to scrape a living on the fringes of civilisation. If she gets caught by a farmer, more likely than not he will shoot her. But help is at hand.
