Africa's wildest moments — raw, unscripted, unforgettable. From charging black rhinos and warthogs outsmarting wild dogs, to elephants shaking marula trees and oxpecker birds hitching rides on hippos — Tekweni captures African wildlife like you've never seen it. Based in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa, we've spent decades filming raw animal behaviour, extraordinary wildlife encounters, and the untold stories of this continent's most iconic creatures. We also explore South Africa's rich history — from the Anglo-Boer War battlefields to Zulu culture and heritage — through stories that stir, surprise, and stay with you. New wildlife encounters every week. 📩 Business: [email protected] 🌐 tekwenimedia.com
