The day-to-day activities of an actual wildlife conservancy. Combining the stories of a lion tracker, animal doctor, poachers, game rangers and a young boy, Wild Earth Africa 3-D Experience features never before seen 3-D footage of Africa's wildest animals, including elephants, rhinos, giraffes, buffalo, zebras, cheetahs and lions.
After a young boy witnesses the shooting of a zebra, he's shocked to see the "poacher" visiting his classroom. It turns out the poacher is actually a veterinarian! When two strangers are spotted with a gun, security rangers are sent to investigate, prepared to protect the animals at all costs. Wild Earth Africa was filmed entirely on location at the Lewa Wildlife Conservancy in Kenya. It is a co-production of the Saint Louis Zoo, North Carolina Zoo and SimEx-Iwerks Entertainment.
