1
00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:05,040
ANIMALS CALL
2
00:00:07,840 --> 00:00:09,960
ELEPHANT TRUMPETS
3
00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:14,240
Many tales have been told
of Africa...
4
00:00:18,080 --> 00:00:21,800
..but this is our story,
5
00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:25,080
a drama set in the heart
of our world...
6
00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:29,760
..experienced as we live
and breathe it.
7
00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:36,120
Our world is changing.
8
00:00:39,480 --> 00:00:41,480
Our lives are in danger.
9
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:46,960
But we still have each other...
10
00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:52,920
..and family is something
worth fighting for.
11
00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:58,120
This is the next chapter
in our story
12
00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:01,320
in a place they call Serengeti.
13
00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:06,080
# Serengeti
14
00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:11,400
# Serengeti
15
00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:16,560
# She is speaking
16
00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:20,040
# Hear her whisper. #
17
00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:39,560
Drought has gripped our land.
18
00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:47,880
The hippos are among the first
to suffer.
19
00:01:57,840 --> 00:01:59,160
Like the rest,
20
00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:02,240
Mafuta and his mother
are clinging on
21
00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:04,720
in what little water remains.
22
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:10,400
The bull
that once took over their pod
23
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:14,640
and made them flee
has invaded their only refuge.
24
00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:24,880
And they aren't
the only ones in trouble.
25
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:33,520
What was once a lifeline
is now a deathtrap.
26
00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:48,120
Those who can, flee.
27
00:02:57,000 --> 00:03:00,080
The elephants
could always dig for water...
28
00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:05,960
..but now even their wells
are running dry.
29
00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:14,760
Kadogo's exhausted,
but staying here means death.
30
00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:28,360
His only hope
is to follow Nalla's lead...
31
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:41,840
..and leave their last
remaining sanctuary behind...
32
00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:59,160
..escape from a drought
that will come for us all.
33
00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:07,280
Bakari has made his choice -
34
00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:11,360
return to a kopje
that was once their home.
35
00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:21,400
Here, they'll find relief
from the searing heat below.
36
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:30,680
A coolness on the breeze.
37
00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:43,440
But there's one thing
they're missing.
38
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:52,680
STONE SPLASHES
39
00:05:18,840 --> 00:05:23,640
As long as it lasts,
water will be their saviour.
40
00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:30,760
Bakari's bought his troop
a little more time,
41
00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:33,760
but they can't wait out
the drought forever.
42
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:44,800
Through it all,
the lions stayed on their kopje,
43
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:47,760
feeding on the desperate passing by.
44
00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:54,160
Now food is far harder to find...
45
00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:58,080
..but change is in the air...
46
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:04,680
..and not a moment too soon.
47
00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:07,640
THUNDER RUMBLES
48
00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:57,720
The hippos didn't hold on in vain.
49
00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:01,600
Mafuta is saved...
50
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:14,000
..as is Kadogo and his family.
51
00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:47,320
As the lake fills,
52
00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:50,880
Mafuta is freed
from his muddy prison.
53
00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:56,560
He'll join the exodus,
54
00:07:56,560 --> 00:08:00,080
buoyed by the promise
of life reborn.
55
00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:14,800
As the land is restored,
so are our hopes.
56
00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:22,840
The returning herds
bring food for many...
57
00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:29,760
..including a new family
of leopard cubs.
58
00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:49,600
When play is over,
adventure beckons...
59
00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:54,960
BABOONS CHATTER
60
00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:57,640
..but not what they might want.
61
00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:04,000
LEOPARD GROWLS LOUDLY
62
00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:12,040
He should have kept his feelings
to himself.
63
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:27,640
Bakari can't abide leopards...
LEOPARD GROWLS
64
00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:29,280
..even the tiniest.
65
00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:36,840
Two cubs alone is an opportunity
too good to miss.
66
00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:42,560
How hard can it be?
67
00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:58,400
But wherever a big baboon can go,
68
00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:01,760
a little cub can go higher...
69
00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:13,920
..and this little cub is a fighter.
70
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:20,520
LEOPARD GROWLS
71
00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:26,720
Bakari's tried his best.
Perhaps his son can do better.
72
00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:35,360
And Mtoto has high ambitions...
73
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:47,240
LEOPARD GROWLS
74
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:47,240
..until he sees what he's facing.
75
00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:48,920
LEOPARD GROWLS
76
00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:58,040
And now it's not just the cubs
to worry about.
77
00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:04,960
BABOON BARKS
78
00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:11,760
LEOPARD GROWLS
79
00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:14,080
BABOON SCREECHES
80
00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:31,440
Her cubs are safe.
81
00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:36,680
Bakari's troop are not.
82
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:43,920
Retreat - the only choice.
83
00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:55,040
For the leopards, a reunion.
84
00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:00,600
Their mother is Mzuri.
85
00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:06,920
She and her sister Dada
were cubs themselves not long ago.
86
00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:26,600
Mzuri is still just as playful
as she was back then...
87
00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:40,080
..but life is now full
of responsibilities, too.
88
00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:50,720
For Bakari's troop, their kopje
still provides sanctuary.
89
00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:57,480
All around, new life is flourishing,
90
00:12:57,480 --> 00:13:00,840
including among the giraffes.
91
00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:25,200
This is Twiga,
92
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:28,560
a newborn still getting to know
his mother...
93
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:34,120
..and his mother
getting to know him.
94
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:57,520
Like all of us,
he's born not knowing danger...
95
00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:01,560
..but danger soon finds him...
96
00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:06,840
..and there are few
more dangerous than Kali.
97
00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:39,160
Twiga's mother
uses her body as a shield.
98
00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:58,240
She must show
she's ready to take Kali on.
99
00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:02,880
First, a warning.
100
00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:12,360
But Twiga has fallen.
101
00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:23,280
She must join him in the gully...
102
00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:31,160
..and defend him there.
103
00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:36,040
But help is on the way...
104
00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:52,440
..and a friend lures Kali away.
105
00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:04,120
It's a battle Kali doesn't need.
106
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:09,440
A reprieve for Twiga.
107
00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:23,040
Kali's days of hunting alone
should really be over,
108
00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:26,240
but old habits die hard.
109
00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:32,720
She now has Askari to help her...
110
00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:38,400
..and a pride
to help look after her cubs.
111
00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:55,040
Duma has left the cheetah coalition
and is back hunting on his own.
112
00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:01,680
Working alone,
he can choose the food he likes,
113
00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:04,080
knowing it won't be stolen from him.
114
00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:15,480
DUMA GROWLS
115
00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:20,480
A wildebeest calf
is the perfect meal for one.
116
00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:45,600
A triumph...
117
00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:49,520
..but one seen by others.
118
00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:09,760
Duma may have left the coalition,
119
00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:12,840
but they're not ready to leave him.
120
00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:17,840
DUMA HISSES, YELPS
121
00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:20,920
He's the hunter who keeps providing.
122
00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:24,920
DUMA HISSES
123
00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:29,400
Now they need him
far more than he needs them.
124
00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:34,520
Somehow, they must find a way
to work together.
125
00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:41,120
BIRD CALLS
126
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:50,400
Like the land,
127
00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:54,440
the river is being restored
to its former glory.
128
00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:59,240
Having left the lake,
the hippos have returned.
129
00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:13,640
Mafuta and his mother are with them.
130
00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:23,560
At last, they can enjoy the space
the river provides.
131
00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:30,080
A time of hardship gives way
to a time of play.
132
00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:42,640
HIPPOS GRUNT
133
00:19:56,280 --> 00:20:00,560
It's not just other hippos
that provide the entertainment.
134
00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:03,360
DUCKS QUACK
135
00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:08,720
MAFUTA GRUNTS
136
00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:27,600
But the river's rebirth
also attracts the unwelcome.
137
00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:54,520
For the feared,
a chance to reassert their power.
138
00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:07,720
The crocodiles are commandeering
the hippos' beach.
139
00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:09,960
MAFUTA SCREECHES
140
00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:17,440
One by one, they come...
141
00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:40,400
..until there's no space left
for the hippos.
142
00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:56,680
On the plains,
there's space aplenty,
143
00:21:56,680 --> 00:21:58,720
but it's filling up fast.
144
00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:08,760
Everyone's struggling
to keep themselves to themselves.
145
00:22:26,360 --> 00:22:31,240
For the mongoose,
the herds bring fresh opportunities.
146
00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:33,560
Their dung attracts insects
147
00:22:33,560 --> 00:22:36,560
looking for a place
to lay their eggs -
148
00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:39,840
a good meal
if you're willing to dig for it.
149
00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:43,240
FLIES BUZZ
150
00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:53,600
The pup that Utani looks after
stays close by...
151
00:22:56,120 --> 00:22:59,600
..still learning
from her teacher's example.
152
00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:09,480
There are plenty
of new delicacies to try...
153
00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:14,840
..as well as some old favourites.
154
00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:27,160
This time, the warthogs have
their own young in tow.
155
00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:44,160
It's not the warm welcome
the mongoose are used to.
156
00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:57,760
The hoglets aren't ready
to be groomed by the mob.
157
00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:10,240
They have far better things to do.
158
00:24:22,120 --> 00:24:26,920
For Utani, now is the moment
he's been waiting for.
159
00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:29,520
The mother warthog is alone.
160
00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:03,040
When it all gets too much,
161
00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:05,640
they still have the dung
to return to.
162
00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:12,360
And even when the food's gone,
163
00:25:12,360 --> 00:25:14,760
it provides other pleasures, too.
164
00:25:31,080 --> 00:25:34,480
The hippos' indulgence
is sunbathing...
165
00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:38,920
..but the crocodiles
have put an end to that.
166
00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:40,640
They've taken over the bank,
167
00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:43,600
and no-one is willing
to challenge them...
168
00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:51,120
..except perhaps one.
169
00:25:51,120 --> 00:25:54,360
Mafuta's mother
has never been afraid
170
00:25:54,360 --> 00:25:56,360
to take on crocodiles...
171
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:04,080
..and crocodiles aren't used
to not being feared.
172
00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:18,040
CROCODILE GROWLS
173
00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:24,840
Even so, it's best
to start with a nibble...
174
00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:30,280
..and then another.
175
00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:51,800
With his mother setting the example,
Mafuta is growing in confidence.
176
00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:57,920
Perhaps too much confidence.
177
00:26:57,920 --> 00:27:00,280
CROCODILE GROWLS
178
00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:04,160
CROCODILE HISSES

Working together,
they've cleared the beach...
180
00:27:23,120 --> 00:27:26,760
..and Mafuta can enjoy the rewards.
181
00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:40,280
Duma is back hunting again.
182
00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:49,080
This time, he's after a bigger meal.
183
00:27:57,880 --> 00:28:01,520
Like it or not,
he's hunting for all.
184
00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:10,120
As the best hunter,
they let him go first.
185
00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:17,960
When the topi looks, Duma freezes.
186
00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:35,960
But has he been seen?
187
00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:45,120
He holds his nerve
and picks his moment.

Once again, the victory is Duma's.
191

The others just join for the spoils.
192
00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:23,840
Duma still takes the risks,
193
00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:26,240
while the others reap the rewards.
194
00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:31,720
Something has to change.
195
00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:40,200
Nearby, Twiga is learning
with each new day.
196
00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:00,320
He awaits instruction.
197
00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:12,920
Today's lesson
is about eating leaves...
198
00:30:15,960 --> 00:30:19,680
..but acacia trees
are armed with thorns.
199
00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:22,000
They need careful handling.
200
00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:31,880
Twiga is wise to be cautious.
201
00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:51,200
He starts on the more tender shoots.
202
00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:08,320
Next up are those with thorns.
203
00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:17,440
But having fun
is all he really wants to do.

Suddenly, excitement fades to fear.
208
00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:11,640
Twiga is on his own...
209
00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:14,920
..or so he thought.
210
00:32:27,960 --> 00:32:30,000
He's found a friend.
211
00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:50,000
The world's not so scary
with a playmate by your side.
212
00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:58,680
But now they're even further
from their mothers.
213
00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:05,520
Tonight, they'll only have
each other to rely on.
214
00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:10,520
A big ask for one so little.

Dawn is playtime
for Mzuri and her cubs.
217
00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:34,480
They're growing fast
and are full of energy.
218
00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:45,040
But energy needs feeding.
219
00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:49,600
Mzuri must bring them back a meal.
220
00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:58,400
A newly replenished watering hole
should draw in the herds.
221
00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:06,480
Already,
their traces are all around.
222
00:34:08,240 --> 00:34:10,840
Her senses haven't failed her.
223
00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:49,520
There's always one
slower than the rest.
224
00:35:09,720 --> 00:35:12,960
It took strength to bring it down.
225
00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:17,520
It will need even more
to drag it back to her cubs.
226
00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:36,960
Twiga and his friend
survived the night,
227
00:35:36,960 --> 00:35:40,200
but the morning brings new urgency.
228
00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:44,240
They need to find their mothers.
229
00:35:59,840 --> 00:36:03,680
Then, when they least
expect it, hope.
230
00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:09,240
A stranger. But will she help them?
231
00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:27,120
Older giraffes,
past the prime of life,
232
00:36:27,120 --> 00:36:29,200
care for the young of others.
233
00:36:34,960 --> 00:36:38,760
She'll act as their guardian
and lead them back home.
234
00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:49,400
She knows exactly where
their mothers can be found.
235
00:37:04,880 --> 00:37:07,920
They arrive just in time.
236
00:37:12,200 --> 00:37:15,520
Twiga's mother
has been searching, too.
237
00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:34,320
Twiga is first to be reunited.
238
00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:47,360
His new-found friend
will soon have his own reunion, too.

the leopard cubs have hardly noticed

It takes an adventurous spirit
to conquer the world...
245

..but a cautious nature
to survive it.
246
00:38:37,600 --> 00:38:42,520
These future hunters are learning
the fine balance they must strike.
247
00:38:57,560 --> 00:39:01,040
It was a heroic feat
to drag it back,
248
00:39:01,040 --> 00:39:04,280
but Mzuri's cubs need meat to grow.
249
00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:11,320
The more cautious cub
spots it first...
250

..while the adventurous one
is missing out.
251

But not for long.

..while the cautious types
take life seriously.
254
00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:33,600
Mzuri will teach them
to learn from each other...
255
00:40:37,960 --> 00:40:41,320
..just as Mzuri's mother taught her.
256
00:40:50,960 --> 00:40:55,400
Wisdom is passed on
from generation to generation...
257
00:40:56,840 --> 00:40:59,400
..and lives on through the young...
258
00:41:01,960 --> 00:41:05,320
..never more so
than with the elephants.

00:41:13,760 --> 00:41:17,440
Kadogo was the youngest member

..but not any more.
261
00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:36,720
His playmate-to-be
is still struggling to stand...
262
00:41:41,120 --> 00:41:43,840
..but has all the help he needs
263
00:41:43,840 --> 00:41:46,440
from more experienced mothers...
264
00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:57,000
..as they pass on their wisdom
265
00:41:57,000 --> 00:41:58,560
to his mother.
266
00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:10,600
Kadogo is keen to meet the new baby.
267
00:42:15,720 --> 00:42:19,360
He can't wait to have someone new
to play with...
268
00:42:24,080 --> 00:42:25,800
..but he must be patient.
269
00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:29,200
The baby is still finding his feet.
270
00:42:34,720 --> 00:42:37,440

to share this special moment.
274
00:43:30,120 --> 00:43:32,960
Leading the way is the father.
275
00:43:43,040 --> 00:43:46,760
Our world connects
in mysterious ways.
276
00:43:48,600 --> 00:43:52,360
Somehow, he knew this was the time.
277
00:43:56,680 --> 00:44:00,720
A baby born,
destined to roam the plains,
278
00:44:00,720 --> 00:44:05,160
as his father does,
and as his father did before him.
279
00:44:09,960 --> 00:44:12,440
For now, a brief moment
280
00:44:12,440 --> 00:44:15,280
to meet his newborn son...
281
00:44:18,080 --> 00:44:20,120
..witnessed by a gathering
282
00:44:20,120 --> 00:44:23,760
of the greatest and wisest
in the land.
283
00:44:27,800 --> 00:44:31,760
As mysteriously as he came,
he leaves.
284
00:44:34,640 --> 00:44:39,120
A moment to share
before they vanish and are gone.
285
00:44:47,040 --> 00:44:50,480
For the newborn,
a lifetime of discovery
286
00:44:50,480 --> 00:44:53,400
has only just begun.
287
00:45:00,960 --> 00:45:05,760
After his scare,
Twiga stays close to his mother.
288
00:45:09,960 --> 00:45:13,840
But one taste of adventure
is never enough.
289
00:45:18,080 --> 00:45:20,600
He'll make more friends if he can.
290
00:45:23,520 --> 00:45:27,040
It's never as hard
as you think it might be.
291
00:45:53,320 --> 00:45:56,600
But when he's older,
it will be different.
292
00:46:00,720 --> 00:46:04,560
He'll meet rivals
and have to defend himself.
293
00:46:11,440 --> 00:46:14,080
It's a glimpse into the future.
294
00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:28,000
But for now,
future rivals are friends...
295
00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:34,160
..someone to practise with.
296
00:46:53,840 --> 00:46:57,960
Play fighting prepares them
for the real battles ahead.
297
00:47:08,080 --> 00:47:11,000
For now, though, it's just a game.
298
00:47:22,560 --> 00:47:26,760
Even so,
his mother keeps an eye on him.
299
00:47:34,920 --> 00:47:38,040
The fighting goes on
into the night...
300
00:47:42,760 --> 00:47:46,360
..while everyone else
heads out to the plains.
301
00:48:03,920 --> 00:48:08,960
Twiga's journey as a young giraffe
is only just beginning...
302
00:48:12,080 --> 00:48:15,880
..but he has all the support
he'll ever need.
303
00:48:24,960 --> 00:48:28,280
The sun rises again
for the cheetahs...
304
00:48:30,800 --> 00:48:36,040
..but for Duma,
the new day means more of the same -
305
00:48:36,040 --> 00:48:39,040
hunting bigger prey for others.
306
00:48:40,960 --> 00:48:44,760
Eland - the greatest antelope
of all.
307
00:48:46,080 --> 00:48:48,440
A huge risk for Duma.
308
00:48:56,720 --> 00:48:59,960
Again, he boldly takes the lead.
309
00:49:21,240 --> 00:49:25,040
And, again,
it's Duma who makes the running.
310
00:49:45,480 --> 00:49:48,720
No cheetah should tackle
an eland alone.
311
00:49:51,040 --> 00:49:54,520
Their kicks are deadly.
312
00:49:54,520 --> 00:49:55,960
DUMA YELPS
313
00:50:00,280 --> 00:50:01,680
DUMA YELPS

He is lucky to survive...
315
00:50:09,040 --> 00:50:12,440
..but this time,
the others take over.
316
00:50:14,920 --> 00:50:18,640
Has Duma inspired them
to take the same risk?
317
00:50:21,040 --> 00:50:23,120
CHEETAH YELPS
318
00:50:33,760 --> 00:50:37,440
The last one follows
to secure their triumph...
319
00:50:40,600 --> 00:50:43,240
..while Duma is cautious.
320
00:50:46,440 --> 00:50:49,840
For once, this wasn't his kill...
321
00:50:53,040 --> 00:50:57,280
..and for once,
they treat Duma with respect.
322
00:50:58,520 --> 00:51:02,520
Finally, they are working
as a team...
323
00:51:09,200 --> 00:51:14,440
..and Duma has been accepted,
not just as a hunter,
324
00:51:14,440 --> 00:51:18,920
but as a fully valued member
of the coalition.
325
00:51:35,400 --> 00:51:39,600
The hippos' peace, once again,
has been broken.
326
00:51:41,200 --> 00:51:45,320
The bull who once took over the pod
is back.
327
00:51:49,520 --> 00:51:52,360
But is he still a danger
to Mafuta...
328
00:51:53,840 --> 00:51:57,440
..or has the bull found a way
to be accepted?
329
00:52:02,360 --> 00:52:05,920
Maybe they are starting
to get along.
330
00:52:07,000 --> 00:52:10,000
The bull now has no reason to fight.
331
00:52:11,680 --> 00:52:15,520
And, besides, Mafuta is older now.
332
00:52:22,240 --> 00:52:25,680
He'll be fine
if he just shows respect.
333
00:52:28,440 --> 00:52:32,800
Mafuta's mother is now
accepting the bull as leader.
334
00:52:39,680 --> 00:52:42,960
Here, grudges can't be held forever.
335
00:52:48,920 --> 00:52:53,320
With acceptance,
Mafuta gains a powerful protector...
336
00:52:55,080 --> 00:52:58,520
..and his mother gains
a potential mate.
337
00:53:01,520 --> 00:53:04,520
Mafuta is growing
in confidence, too...
338
00:53:07,320 --> 00:53:10,960
..and Magamba isn't the threat
she used to be.
339
00:53:22,280 --> 00:53:26,200
Is this another chance
to forget old rivalries...
340
00:53:31,160 --> 00:53:35,000
..as his mother has
with the new bull?
341
00:53:51,280 --> 00:53:54,720
In this land, anything is possible.
342
00:54:01,360 --> 00:54:05,320
Rivalries can become friendships,
too.
343
00:54:12,000 --> 00:54:18,680
Duma and his new best friends
have returned to the lake as equals.
344
00:54:18,680 --> 00:54:20,840
After drought and struggle,
345
00:54:20,840 --> 00:54:23,880
our land is entering
a time of change...
346
00:54:25,560 --> 00:54:28,800
..and the best is yet to come.
347
00:54:44,200 --> 00:54:49,720
The flamingos are returning,
back from lands beyond.
348
00:54:59,160 --> 00:55:02,000
A sign of life renewed.
349
00:55:09,120 --> 00:55:14,000
The lake restored
as all life returns.
350
00:55:18,320 --> 00:55:21,280
For once,
Bakari doesn't have to fight
351
00:55:21,280 --> 00:55:23,560
for his troop's survival.
352
00:55:23,560 --> 00:55:27,160
His duty is done...for now.
353
00:55:57,200 --> 00:56:00,920
Kali, too, has triumphed
against the odds.
354
00:56:07,080 --> 00:56:10,720
She's found a pride
where her young are safe,
355
00:56:10,720 --> 00:56:12,800
with food aplenty.
356
00:56:23,160 --> 00:56:27,320
For Zalika,
fresh opportunities, too.
357
00:56:39,840 --> 00:56:42,640
And there are
yet more signs of renewal.
358
00:56:46,960 --> 00:56:49,720
The flamingos dance.
359
00:56:54,400 --> 00:56:58,560
A courtship ritual
that heralds new life.
360
00:57:13,360 --> 00:57:17,800
From the hardest times
come the richest times,
361
00:57:17,800 --> 00:57:20,880
and so the cycle goes on.
362
00:57:22,640 --> 00:57:28,800
And in an ever-changing world,
so our stories continue.
363
00:57:40,000 --> 00:57:43,520
# Serengeti
364
00:57:44,680 --> 00:57:48,000
# Hear her whisper. #
