Acclaimed wildlife filmmaker and photographer Kim Wolhuter comes from a family of South African conservationists: his
grandfather was the first game ranger in the Kruger National Park, and is famous for single-handedly killing a lion
with a knife after it pulled him from his horse.
Wolhuter served in the South African military and worked as a senior park warden before turning to cinematography
and photography. Since then he has taken photographs for National Geographic and made films for National Geographic
Television & Film and the BBC. In 2001, his movie Stalking Leopards, about a male leopard in the Mala Mala Game
Reserve in Mpumalanga Province, won an Emmy Award.
