Nothing goes to waste when you work smarter, not harder...

Often depicted simply as vicious, greedy and conniving predators, the scavengers of Africa - the hyenas, vultures, and jackal, to name a few - are actually essential for the health of the continent's ecosystem, and play a crucial role in maintaining balance within the savannah.

This striking documentary, from the producers behind Leopard Game of Thrones & Predators: Bloodlines,  travels the length of Africa to reveal how nature's villains  are in reality an essential "cleanup crew", which supports the vital circle of life across the continent. 

But with fierce competition and hungry mouths to be fed, there's no such thing as a free meal. So pulling off the savanna's smartest hustles will take wits, cunning and a killer instinct.
