From his childhood on a Berkshire farm in the UK to his rise to international fame as a presenter on the Big Cat Diary, Jonathan Scott has lived a life that many people can only dream about. Following a degree in Zoology, he traveled 6,000 miles overland to Africa, where he became first a wildlife artist and then a safari guide in the Masai Mara. His experience allowed him to write his first major book, The Marsh Lions, followed by The Leopard's Tale. At the same time, his TV career launched when he became a presenter on the long-running American series Wild Kingdom. Jonathan and his wife Angie traveled the globe in search of award-winning photographs and a life of adventure.
