Can you imagine a life without Lions, Cheetahs and Leopards? Fifty years ago, there were more than half a million lions in Africa. Today there are fewer than 20,000. A world without these majestic predators could soon become a reality. This series gives a new perspective on the problems suffered by the big cats in this changing era in Africa. With the illegal and legal hunting ever prevalent, will society listen to how they can keep these cats alive? 'The end of the big cats' is a documentary film based on denouncing the dramatic decline of the big cats in Africa, and showing the conservancy initiatives for keeping these species alive in wildlife for the next generations. The documentary gives the floor to conservationists and farmers who explain which is their relation with the big cats and also describes the situation of these fabulous animals in Africa. Besides the explanations, the documentary shows big cats and other animals in wildlife, several hunting scenes and conservationists' iniciatives.

End of the Big Cats is a series that ran for 1 seasons (4 episodes) between July 3, 2014 and on National Geographic

4. Special

This final episode recaps our discoveries so far, and traces the disastrous journey into nearextinction for the Big Cats. Finally, we ask the question: can the cats be saved? And what needs to be done?

3. Cheetah

Cheetahs have already survived one extinction, estimated to have been around 10,000 years ago. Now, seen as a pest by farmers, and hunted vigorously, the cheetah is perilously close to a second exit.

2. Leopard

Leopards are more resistant to extinction because of their elusive behaviour. Leopards are solitary creatures, the quintessential ambush-and-stalking predator, able to find the most remotes places on earth to avoid human contact. This gives it a better chance of survival than lions and cheetah.

1. Lion

Prosecuted for many decades, Africas lion population has declined to only twenty thousand, and many biologists and conservationists are starting an international campaign to save these extraordinary animals, provide space for them to live, and fund research into understanding their behaviour
