Okavango Untamed
(44 mins, Discovery Network, 2004)

Di Tilden Davies has been a guide in the Okavango Delta in Botswana for 10 years. She takes us on a journey into the lives of lions and hippos that tests her skill and resolve to the limit. She gets closer to lions than she's ever been before, as she enters a lion kill in a bite-proof cage. Then she sets off to solve the enduring mystery of the Delta - where do hippo disappear to in the heat of the day? In the course of her quest, an injured hippo attacks her boat. Its powerful jaws close in as she tries desperately to kick her way free and almost loses her leg in the encounter. One of the few people to survive a hippo attack, Di tells us what it's like to have lived through this nightmare.
