Growing up in Maun, the gateway to the Okavango, gave Rea a passion for wildlife from an early age. He worked as a safari guide and ran his own tourism business before joining the Natural History Filming Unit Botswana. He was inspired to become a filmmaker by his desire to share the natural beauty of Botswana’s wildlife with a wide audience.

|---|---|
| Hometown | Maun, Botswana (The northern gateway to the Okavango Delta) |

| Day or night filming? | Day filming |
| Best bush meal | Chicken curry |
| Best thing about the Delta | It鈥檚 my home, and the last wild Eden. |
“Matho is my favourite cat. She’s a go getter always at the forefront for any hunts and is very experienced. She's a mum with a strong character – very feisty and takes no nonsense. The best thing about my job is spending 24/7 of my time in the wilderness, and educating audiences from all over the world about the importance of wildlife conservation.”
