For those who, like me, are wondering what exactly is in this book that has no description and reviews for several different books, I'll give you a summary. Stars of Big Cat Diaries is a ten-year anniversary book, devoting a chapter to each year of production with beautiful photos and comparatively brief text summarizing the year's episodes and giving some background details that may not have made it into the show. Scattered throughout the book are also short sidebars on lion (or leopard, or cheetah) facts, bits on the cameramen or editors, and similar information. Although a bit sparser on text than I might have liked, the photography more than makes up for any lack.
I am a big fan of the Big Cat Diary series. I tape it everyday on Animal Planet. I feel like I know these cats intimately. The book helped to answer some questions about the different cheetahs. I had the leopards down pretty well. I felt sad when Half-Tail was killed.The book just made me appreciate the big cats even more an their struggles to survive. I have it on my coffee table and pick it up and revisit it at least once a week. Jonathan Scott and Simon presented the Big Cat Diary series with such knoweledge and compassion that it is absoulutely breath-taking and mesmerizing. I wish that they would go back and do another series update. I keep updated by Jackson Looseyia's blog! Even if you never heard of Big Cat Diary, Jonathan's book would catch your interest and make you want to see it. It is a beautiful book, well done and inciteful. I am glad I bought it.
I am a huge fan of Jonathon and Angela Scott, as well as the Big Cat series. Since most of the series is not available on DVD it was wonderful to read about it and learn more background about the cats that I had often wondered but never knew. This books solves many mysteries the viewers would loved to have known but the program didn't have the time to include.Even if you do not know of this show, it's a great educational book while still being entertaining, and the pictures are absolutely stunning.
Excellent quality pictures and the text of Jonathan and Angie Scott is very well written. A good memory of all BigCat series facts and stars. (the only downside is that the book arrived with the cover damaged..., I would like to have it replaced).
The writing and photographs are superb and affect me for two reasons; in 1993 I was in Africa in the Masai Mara Game Reserve (the 3rd time my parents had been there) and I have watched Big Cat Diaries on Animal Planet as often as I can. I REALLY WANT THE SERIES ON DVD FOR VIEWING IN REGION 1. Because this series started only 4 years after I was there, I only imagine that the leopard, cheetahs and lions I saw first hand are also some of those presented on Big Cat Diary. This book will just add to my memories of my fantastic time in Kenya and hopefully of a positive future for the big cats in general in Africa, Asia and in the Americas. They deserve to live on this planet just as much as humans do. PLEASE, PLEASE PUT THE TV SERIES ON DVD REGION 1 FOR ALL OF NORTH AMERICA TO EASILY VIEW WHENEVER THEY WANT.
This book had everything the show has. You can recognize sequences from the different seasons and it tells you what happened to some of the animals that they lost along the way that were not shown in the show. The writing is superb and the pictures are great. This is one of my favorites. If you don't know what I am talking aboutâ¦The Big Cat Diary is from Animal Plant and can still be seen at 7;00 and 7:30 am Monday thur Saturday. I watch the shows over and over again and fell in love with all the animals and all the adventures they had. I keep them taped all the time so I can always go back and watch when I need a good animal boost.
I've been watching this show for a few months when I get ready in the morning and I'm completely hooked. I've even gotten a few people at the office to like it. The book is awesome!! It has more back story on the cats than you see in the show, and some really cool pictures, too. At our office today, we decided that we would keep it in the coffee room, so anyone can read while they are taking a break. =)
The book came today and I have not been able to put it down. It adds another dimension to the series. I felt that I knew the cast and that they were old friends. The photos are really quite nice. If you are a fan of Big Cat Diary then this book is a absolutely gotta have. You won't regret it..
