15.05.2022 Kenya's open plains, and private reserves like the Olare Motorogi Conservancy, provide some of the last fragments of suitable habitat for Africa's cheetahs. The...se elegant cats live a precarious existence shaped by the threats of rival predators and the increasing footprint of humans on the landscape. Great Plains cofounders Dereck and Beverly Joubert have spent their lives fighting for big cats and their latest film "The Way of the Cheetah" celebrates Africa's fastest land animals in a visual extravaganza of their hunting prowess and social dynamics. Watch the trailer here: http://ow.ly/wHUX50HH2YJ, and find out more about how you can visit the locations where the film was captured here: http://ow.ly/5aJP50HH2Rn US audiences can watch "The Way of the Cheetah" airing in the US as part of #BigCatWeek on Nat Geo Wild this Sunday, January 30 at 10/9c.

10.01.2022 Aurora Expeditions is on schedule with the build of its second state-of-the-art expedition ship, the Sylvia Earle, and today can reveal its striking new exterio...r design. Due for delivery in October 2021, the Sylvia Earle features the cutting-edge Ulstein X-BOW, a core design element that’s essential to the speed, agility and impressive fuel efficiency of the ships in the Aurora Expeditions fleet. CEO Monique Ponfoort says: It is really exciting to see a second X-BOW ship coming into market for Aurora Expeditions. Its innovative, eco-sensitive design captures the essence of small-ship expedition travel pioneered by Aurora Expeditions. Monique adds: Our new purpose-built ship honours the highly accomplished marine biologist, oceanographer and explorer, Dr. Sylvia Earle, who is actively involved in the development of her namesake, and I look forward to working closely with Dr. Earle in the coming years. Global Head of Marketing, Victoria Primrose, notes: The sleek new design of the Sylvia Earle has been created to reflect the pioneering nature of our ships and the adventurous activities we will undertake with our passionate expeditioners on board. From a brand perspective, the bold design and use of our strong signature teal colour will make the Sylvia Earle instantly recognisable as an Aurora Expeditions ship, she continues. We are thrilled that the build is on time despite the challenges the world has faced in 2020, and we look forward to welcoming our first expeditioners on board the Sylvia Earle as we venture to the world’s most remote and fascinating destinations, Victoria concludes. The ship will visit many new destinations within the Aurora Expeditions program, including Alaska, Baja California, the Russian Far East, Raja Ampat and West Papua. Aurora Expeditions ships boast one of the lowest polluting marine engines in the world, due to a combination of low energy consumption, high fuel-efficiency and a streamlined design. The state-of-the-art Tier 3 engine delivers an 80% reduction in emissions* and can utilise virtual anchoring to hold its position instead of dropping anchor on the delicate sea floor. On-board desalination plants convert seawater to fresh water that is safe to drink. Our ships therefore carry less fresh water on sea crossings, further reducing fuel consumption. The Sylvia Earle will be the second in the fleet to sail with the patented ULSTEIN X-BOW, whose inverted bow design, in combination with Rolls-Royce dynamic stabilisers, offers unrivalled stability and comfort1 on ocean crossings. The Ulstein X-BOW cuts through sea swells, minimising vibrations and disturbances, and makes quicker transits through waves. This also helps reduce fuel consumption by up to 60%*. The second ship of this design will break ground yet again. The Ulstein X-BOW on the Sylvia Earle will feature a unique two-level glass lounge in the bow, offering extraordinary views to the front of the ship. In polar regions, this means that passengers will be able to appreciate the majesty of an iceberg immediately as it appears on the horizon. It will also feature an outdoor swimming pool, heated by repurposing engine heat, which will be a welcome addition in warmer regions. See more

07.01.2022 Antarctica "So this happened with a group of lucky paddlers. A triple fluke nice and close. This group of 6 feeding Humpbacks, headed right for us as we sat and... watched from a distance. Humbled to be in their presence. The second video shows the view from the safety zodiac as the humpbacks turned around for another inspection of our group. The thing that blows my mind is the control they have in the water. Never do I feel that one will not notice us and tap us by accident. Remember old whales remember whaling and have obviously forgiven us for what we did." Words and video courtesy of Artie Ahier (@rtia), SUP Instructor and Expedition Guide. The second video was filmed by Expedition Guide Daven Hafey. Note: this video was taken in the past Antarctic season. #antarcticcruise #antarctic #HumpbackWhales #antarctica @quarkexpeditions #smallshipcruise #slowcruise #microcruising
