Description
Southern Africa is home to world's deadliest cat. It's not a lion, a cheetah or even a leopard – it’s the Black-footed cat.
Today, we know quite a bit about this cat – but this wasn't the case almost thirty years ago when Dr. Alexander Sliwa started his research into this species.
Research like this takes time, effort and most importantly passion. It can be tedious, arduous and sometimes boring. This is the story of Dr Sliwa and his passion for studying Africa's black footed cat.
