Now National Geographic takes viewers onto a unique battlefield in the Okavango Delta to witness the grueling fight for survival of highly specialized lions that prey almost exclusively on buffalo in Relentless Enemies.Format: BLU-RAY DISC Genre:MISCELLANEOUS/SPECIAL INTEREST UPC:727994751953 Manufacturer No:G75195

 Great Video July 24, 2008
We bought this video because we are going on a safara to Duba Plains, which is where this was filmed. We found the film extremely well done and it gave lots of insight into what to expect when we visit. The interaction among the three lion prides, the buffalo herds, and the hyenas was fascinating! The filming was well done and the Blu-Ray experience just added to the enjoyment of watching this film. Despite what others have said in their reviews, we never got tired of watching this 90 minute video. Also, there is an excellent extra feature on this disk on Cheetahs - again well done. I highly recommend this video.
I know the area well, great film April 21, 2008
I watched this documentary being filmed over serveral trips to Duba during the time that Derick and Beverly were camped there shooting video. This is probably the best of all the documentaries that they have produced.
BTW - Both of the Duba Boys have now been killed. The last one died after a cape buffalo attack a few weeks ago.
 Misleading Title April 17, 2008
6 out of 9 found this review helpful
I bought this Blu-ray disc hoping to see what the title suggested: "Relentless Enemies" [of the nature world]. It turns out it is not really that topic. It is only about lions and buffalo for the whole documentary. In a way, could the title be misleading so that the customers will buy it, because if the title had been "Lions, the Relentless Enemies of Buffalo" or "Relentless Enemies -- between Lions and Buffalo", I think less people will buy it.
So buy this only if you don't mind watching lion vs baffalo for the whole documentary. As a comparison, the program Galapagos by BBC for about the same price is a steal.
Visually Astonishing March 29, 2008
Showing the full potential of your hd tv, this blu-ray reminds you why you bought the blu-ray player in the firt place.
Excellent Hi-Def Disc January 7, 2008

The film has great resolution (1080p) and crystal clear sound. It's amazing to hear the lions roar in a home theater system. A definite must see.
