Planet Earth Live, BBC 1 - Well, not really...

Planet Earth, not really live, not really kicking !

Anyone else under whelmed by the childish Richard Hammond (still in 'Bottom Gear') and the cloying Julia Bradbury. It may be billed as a global wildlife event but judging by the newspaper pannings there is little to recommend it.

What really gets me is when there are so many fantastic presenters around like Packham, Scott and Attenborough why ‘on earth’ have we ended up with these two. The script is straight from kindergarten and the endless editing annoying - but more fundamentally - it is not live! Anyone knows the Masai Mara is two hours ahead of us… so if you broadcast at 8.00 pm how could you possibly see any live action unless you consider a prancing, precious, primped up, puerile petrol head 'live action'.

Tiger Stripes Truly Earnt...

Well by now you must all know of Paul Goldstein's mad week! If not, in a nutshell; Paul ran the Brighton Marathon, climbed Kilimanjaro (and summited!), and then ran the London Marathon – all in one week – in a 9ft tiger suit!

The aim of this arduous and intense week was to raise money for Bengal tigers in India, for the Worth More Alive campaign that has been a huge passion of Paul’s for many years.

Disney's African Cats film released 27th April

African Cats is a true story set against the backdrop of one of the wildest places on Earth, capturing the real love, humour and determination of the king of the savanna. The story features Mara, an endearing lion cub who strives to grow up with her mother's strength, spirit and wisdom; Sita, a fearless cheetah and single mother of five mischievous newborns; and Fang, a proud leader of the pride who must defend his family from a once banished lion.

The film launches in the cinemas on Friday 27th April 2012.

If you would like to experience African cats first-hand then look out for our trips to East Africa, such as the Classic Kenya Safari (AYM).

The Tiger summited

We have just received these words from our team in Tanzania...

"The Siberian Tiger is a sub species, however yesterday some of that cold weathers tiger's DNA was in evidence on Kilimanjaro. In the worst conditions that anybody - Exodus or Tanzanian had ever experienced, the Tiger summited, cajoled and encouraged by six astonishingly brave Exodus trekkers."

Well done Paul and the team!

London Marathon next for Paul and the Tiger this weekend. If you're around please show your support for Paul Goldstein, who will be running the London Marathon on Sunday to raise money for the Bengal tiger and let us know if you spot him and we'll donate £1 per message and £2 per picture received.
