Episode: Born Wild: The First Days of Life

From the moment of birth, baby animals in the wild can face almost anything -- from a large social group of interested caregivers to complete abandonment. Yet all wild babies share some things in common -- they must learn whom to trust, what to fear, and when to act -- all in the first days of life.
