This Wild Life (2015)

Immerse yourself in "This Wild Life," a vibrant fusion of family, culture, and the untamed beauty of the African wilderness. At the heart of this compelling narrative is the intrepid Saba Douglas-Hamilton, a wildlife expert who, along with her husband Frank and their three young daughters, embarks on a life-changing journey to the picturesque Samburu National Reserve in Kenya. Saba, a Kenyan native who grew up amidst lions, giraffes, and warthogs, and conversed in Swahili before English, has always been spellbound by the allure of the wild. Her formative years were an exhilarating whirlwind of travels across Tanzania, Kenya, and Uganda, where her parents devoted their lives to studying elephant behavior and crusading against the illegal ivory trade. It's in this vibrant ecosystem that she met her husband Frank, at a UK wedding. After years of globe-trotting romance, Frank relocated to Kenya, diving headfirst into his role as the chief operations officer for 'Save The Elephants.' As Frank devotes his time to the conservation efforts of 'Save The Elephants,' Saba takes the reins of the Elephant Watch Camp, a luxury game lodge established by her mother. The series paints an evocative portrait of their lives, oscillating between their personal adventures and their profound connection with their Samburu neighbors. The Samburu people, many of whom work at the camp or contribute to local conservation efforts, are an integral part of this close-knit community living in harmony with nature. "This Wild Life" is a riveting saga of a family's journey, their trials and triumphs, as they navigate the realities of living amidst the spellbinding allure and the raw, untamed power of the African bush.
