Watch these fascinating documentaries about our adored and mysterious animals
The Lion in Your Living Room - with David Suzuki
Would you invite a wild animal into your living room? There may be one eyeing you with inscrutable golden eyes right now...
.... In recent years we’ve come to expect them to live in our apartments, tolerate other animals, stay inside and give up hunting. Are those changes we really want to see? What will they be like if they’re able to change so radically? Will they still have the qualities that have made them the most popular pets in the world?
"People love cats. I don’t think people know why, they just do."
Donna Zuckerbrot, director, The Lion in Your Living Room
