A five-tonne adult male elephant lies dead in Tsavo West National Park, Kenya, killed by a vet's needle after poachers left him mortally wounded. Biologist Simon Watt leads a team who rig remote cameras and night vision gear to watch what happens next: roughly six million calories of fat, meat, and organs turning into a feast that reshapes the local food chain for days. Leopard expert Alayne Cotterill records the rare sight of leopards feeding on carrion rather than fresh kills, raptor specialist Simon Thomsett tracks vultures whose growing wariness of carcasses hints at a shift in their behavior, and entomologist Dino Martins watches flies and beetles swarm the body within hours, drawing in still more predators behind them. Under Warren Samuels' supervision, the cameras stay rolling around the clock, documenting hyenas, insects, and scavenger birds working in sequence until the largest land animal on earth is reduced to bones. The film treats death as the start of a food web rather than its end, tracing exactly who eats what, and when.
