Accompanying the landmark BBC natural history documentary narrated by Sir David Attenborough, and featuring stunning full-colour photography.

Five years, four powerful animal families. Who will rule the Kingdom?

Zambia's spectacular Luangwa Valley contains ideal leopard territory. It also hosts one of the highest densities of wild dogs ever recorded, one of the ten remaining strongholds of lions left in Africa and is home to one of the few hyena populations to be studied in depth.

Kingdom chronicles the real-life saga of four animal families as each one stakes their claim here for a territory called Nsefu. Over the course of five years, this story follows the twists and turns of their interconnected lives. Leopard mother Olimba is busy bringing up her two cubs, when wild dog Storm arrives, fiercely determined to make this place home for her pack. Hyenas Tenta and Tandala walk a tightrope between following their rivals for food, whilst keeping themselves and their cubs safe; and the lion pride strive to secure their control of this territory for generations to come.

Featuring stunning full-colour photography, Kingdom charts the uplifting highs of these real animal characters, as well as their heart-rending lows, as they jostle for power and their family's survival.
