These are the incredible and unexpected stories of the world’s most charismatic predators: the big cats.
Our team Christiaan Munoz Salas and Christian Munoz Donoso in long lenses and Moris Munoz Salas in aerial cinematography were assigned to film the Pumas episode in Torres del Paine, managing for the first time to film the social activity of a group of 8 pumas. Never before had this behavior been seen, being a great discovery for science.
