Video: Nature: Born Wild - The First Days of Life (50 min.)
Across the animal kingdom, some of the most essential lessons — and the
most extreme challenges — occur in the first moments of life. As animal
parents struggle to help their young survive their first days in the
wild, they face seemingly insurmountable odds. Understandably, the
process of birthing and raising young is one of the most stressful
experiences an animal can endure. And it is in these very trials that
the most extraordinary glimpses of life in the wild come to light. |
