The Conservation Game

The film stays with the facts - that what I love about Mike's approach to his work. The utter, bare bones truth is what makes this interesting. It takes discipline and conviction in your direction to stay the course and let the truth tell the story. Really well done. It could have been an overglamourized hit piece on pop culture celebs but it stayed focused on the correct intent and meaning. Webber does it again.

You need to watch this. This made me cry many times. If you love big cats you need to see this. What Tim Harrison and the team have done is outstanding. A good example of what you see on TV is not always what it seems.

At times, there are efforts so great with results so profound, one feels unworthy to give any form of criticism. The "who am I to judge card" comes into play here. Writing reviews can, at best, be helpful to others - documenting and rectifying crimes committed "by humanity" is leagues apart.

The Conservation game is a must see - more to the point it is a must do. Unfortunately many of the "must dos" never get done... yet somehow we always expect somebody to pull through, to stand up, to have the true grit and courage to deliver; deliver what we feel we have the right to know., deliver when blatant wrongdoings are somehow missed out.

Tim Harrison, Michael Webber & co have performed their must do. If they have the energy one can hope they have more must dos on their bucket list - if they have not, they can rest assured that they have, well and truly, risen to the call of humanity.

This is an extraordinary documentary. Documentaries record events, often sad and tragic events. It takes something extra to go beyond taking notes. To not merely settle for documenting a sorry state of affairs - but to also be instrumental in change for the better.

In the best of worlds The Conservation Game stretches even further - inspiring others to turn "must does" into "have dones".

This film shatters ideas and beliefs about practices that have been passed off as "conservation" on an American public apparently willing to take celebrities at their word. Excellent piece, chock full of facts that anyone concerned with the preservation of these beautiful animals needs to be aware of.

Exposes the horrible exploitation of exotic animals taking place in this country by famous people all under the guise of "conservation". We must put an end to this! Very informative and eye opening. If you care about animals at all you should see this movie!
