The Lion Queens is a series like no other. It takes you right into the lion kingdom and records some of the jaw-dropping and awe-inspiring close ups with the lion. The programs follow the courageous work of the Lion Queens who are helping the Asiatic Lion make a comeback. Riding on motorbikes, and often on foot, a brigade of girls patrols the jungle fearlessly. They chase down heavily armed poachers, capture leopards who stray in to the human settlements, hand-rear the lion cubs abandoned by the pride and medically treat the lions in pain.
