African Leopards on the Hunt – High Definition

The African leopard (Panthera pardus pardus) is a subspecies of leopard native to Sub-Saharan Africa. These big cats are beautiful animals, but they are also quite dangerous. They are best admired from a vehicle at a safe distance. I filmed these leopards in South Luangwa National Park in Zambia. Most of them are just chillin…

Giant Monitor Lizard Wandering on Australian Beach

Lace monitor lizards (Varanus varius) aka tree goanna are common lizards native to eastern Australia. This one was wandering the beach at Etty Bay, Queensland while I was waiting for cassowaries to show up. These lizards get up to 2 meters (7 feet) long!!!

Majestic Giraffes Running

Some years ago, while hanging out at Mfuwe Lodge in Zambia, I filmed some giraffes (Giraffa camelopardalis thornicrofti) running past the lodge. Something had startled them (no idea what), and they bolted. Giraffes are goofy creatures, but in this moment, their gait was quite graceful. These scenes were filmed in South Luangwa National Park in…

Miniature Schnauzer Playing with a Tuxedo Cat – Wholesome Video

Somewhere in rural Western Australia, a miniature schnauzer plays with a tuxedo cat. I filmed this near a farm I was staying at in October 2013.

American Squirrels are Conquering Europe, and It’s Bad

If you live in the eastern United States, you’re probably familiar with the ubiquitous eastern gray squirrel. Cute, derpy, annoying…whatever term you have for them, they are crucial to North American ecosystems, spreading seeds and fungal spores where they can grow and flourish. However, outside of North America, gray squirrels are waging a war against…

The Steepest Street in the World

Defying the laws of nature and physics, cities around the world are built on mountains and hills, and their streets can often be quite steep. The American city of San Francisco is renowned for its cable cars and numerous steep streets, but do any of San Fran’s sloped roads hold the title for the world’s…

Why is This Car Covered in Treefrogs?

Sometimes, animals appear in the most unexpected places. One night while camping in Australia’s Northern Territory, I got out of my tent to get something from my car. When I got there, I discovered a horde of quadrupedal amphibians had made themselves at home. If you’ve watched my other content, you’ll know I’m a huge…
