Beverly and Dereck Joubert: Spirit of the Wild
from What It Takes® · host Academy of Achievement
The look in a lion's eye, fixated on its prey... the sound of a hyena taking down a zebra foal... the tender ministrations of an elephant. For over 40 years, the Jouberts (National Geographic Explorers) have lived in some of the most remote places in Africa, capturing on film what other humans have never seen. They are in love with each other, and with their mission: to save big cats and other wild creatures. They tell amazing stories here of their encounters with animals, their solitary existence in the bush, and the buffalo attack that almost killed them both, but strengthened their resolve.Music from KaraSquare.com, BenSound.com & PremiumBeat.com.(c ) American Academy of Achievement 2018
