Tigers are among the most mysterious creatures on Earth. Entire research projects go into the field and fail to find a single tiger. Under the auspices of universities on two continents, Salmoni’s research represents a unique opportunity to advance the science of tiger conservation. The game park at Tigermoon will allow John and Dave to observe tiger behaviour never before witnessed in the wild, their preferred prey and habitats, their routines, habits and hunting techniques. Living with Tigers is about saving two Tigers, introducing Ron and Julie and their amazing journey – from North America to South Africa, and from captivity to life in the wild. Dismissed by some conservationists as bad practice and a scam, the film about these two tigers makes for fascinating viewing, as Ron and Julie hunt in the rugged South African landscape. Living with Tigers is, in effect, 'Tiger boot camp', with John Varty (the 'Tiger Man' from Tiger Canyons) and Dave Salmoni serving as both surrogate parents and drill sergeants. By the end, they had debunked one of the age-old myths of tiger conservation. They proved that captive-bred tiger cubs can learn to survive in the wild.
