Super Cats

Meet the planet’s ultimate cats. In Sri Lanka, a tiny rusty spotted cat explores his forest home. The Canada lynx lives farther north than any cat, relying on snowshoe hares to survive the bitterly cold winters.

In the wetlands of Asia, fishing cats have adapted to an aquatic lifestyle. High in the forest of Central America, a female margay leaps from tree to tree, slow-motion footage revealing her acrobatic skills.

New approaches and technologies help uncover some of the cats’ most intimate secrets, including the cheetah’s remarkable gymnastic abilities and why lions are able to hunt so cooperatively.
