[Helena Bonham Carter] It's early morning
on the plains of Botswana.

She led them astray,

Her sister Venus
might be the one to lead them to safety.

There's a point
in every young animal's life

when they need
to find their place within the family.

A troop of daredevils
lives amongst the ruins.
30
00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:29,120
A family of toque macaques,

00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:33,600

but this family
is all about the pecking order.

Right at the bottom
is nine-month-old orphan Amma.

A couple of weeks ago,
her mom went missing, presumed dead.

[melancholy music continues]
40

And without her, little Amma is all alone.
41

There's no one to cuddle her,
to groom her,
42
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:20,800
or to care for her.
43
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:25,200
With no milk from her mom,
44
00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:28,840
she spends every waking minute
searching for food.
45
00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:30,640
It's exhausting.

But it's not just about
missing a mom's love and protection.

00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:49,520
Babies inherit their mother's rank,
50
00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:53,320
and as an orphan,
Amma struggles to be included.

She faces a daily reminder
of what she's missing.

Baby Zach is the son of the alpha female.
56

one in three young macaques don't make it.
60

But while life seems good,

00:05:34,840 --> 00:05:39,160
there's always a macaque
looking to show others who's boss.
73
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:46,360
And little Amma is an easy target.

from the rest of their family.

Away from the warmth of the family huddle,
180
00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:23,960
she's vulnerable.

[tense music plays]
182
00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:33,840
Stray dogs also live amongst the ruins.
183
00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:38,720
And they're the macaques' greatest threat.
184
00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:45,880
With no one watching over her,
Amma's oblivious.

But someone in the troop
has spotted the danger.
188

- [dog growls]
- [macaques squeal]
189
00:14:57,520 --> 00:14:59,040
The alarm goes up.

[tense music continues]
192
00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:07,720
While little Zach
has been carried to safety by his mom,
193
00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:10,920
Amma, as always, must look after herself.

[tense music continues]
195
00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:16,840
She makes it to the trees
in the nick of time.

[tense music fades]
197
00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:28,280
But it's an unsettling experience.
198
00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:33,720
When the group huddles together...
199
00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:40,320
Amma's longing to be included.
200
00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:43,160
But as usual, she is ignored.
201
00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:48,400
Zach is the clear favorite.
202
00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:57,160
She moves closer, hoping to get noticed.
203

[tranquil music plays]
204
00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:10,400
It seems to have done the trick.
205
00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:14,000
The alpha male starts to groom her.

[tranquil music continues]
207
00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:31,040
Amma lies down meekly,
desperate to keep his attention.
208
00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:37,040
But the moment passes.
209
00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:41,800
She's no nearer
to getting accepted into the family.
210

[tranquil music fades]
211
00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:56,440
In the Okavango Delta of Botswana,
212
00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:02,560
the reunited wild dog pack
is recovering from its ordeal.
213
00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:09,000
The adults spent a long time
searching for the pups,
214
00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:10,680
and now they're starving.
215
00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:15,680
Finding food is their top priority.
216
00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:21,240
For the pups,
playtime is top of their list.
217

[uplifting music plays]
218
00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:25,880
Duma's confidence has returned.
219
00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:30,360
She's not given up
on being the bossy one just yet.
220

[uplifting music continues]
221
00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:40,440
If Venus is to be a future leader,
she'll need to show she can take charge.
222
00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:42,520
[uplifting music continues]
223
00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:50,400
Bamba's spotted something
just across the clearing.
224
00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:53,800
A hunt is on.
225
00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:56,560
[uplifting music continues]
226
00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:11,640
Pups this age
wouldn't usually follow a hunt,
227
00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:14,080
but it's so close, they can't resist.

[wild dogs squeal]
233
00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:37,400
But they quickly give way
to the youngsters.
234
00:18:40,360 --> 00:18:43,480
In this family, pups always come first.
235
00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:50,480
Mealtimes aren't just a chance to fill up.
236
00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:55,640
It's also an opportunity
for a show of strength.
237
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:02,400
Duma tussles over a bone with Venus,
238
00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:05,880
but Venus does not back down.
239
00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:09,720
[wild dogs squeal]
240
00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:15,120
She holds her ground
and gets a bit of the kill all to herself.
241
00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:20,000
A win sets her apart.
242

[tranquil music plays]
243
00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:31,800

[tranquil music fades]
246
00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:51,360
But Venus isn't ready
to let them have their turn just yet.
247
00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:58,200
She's buoyed by her newfound confidence
and pushes the adults back.

[jaunty music plays]
249
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:02,160
It's a bold move.
250
00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:09,320
She's showing she's got what it takes
to be a future leader of a pack.

[jaunty music continues]
252
00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:19,760
Her point made,
she leads the pups away for a drink.

[jaunty music continues]
254
00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:28,480
A potential alpha in waiting.

[jaunty music fades]
256
00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:40,760
Working out
where you stand within the family
257
00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:44,000
can be a lot easier
if you're an only child.
258
00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:49,040
In England, young animals
at the lake are growing up fast.
259
00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:54,760
But one has bloomed more than most.

[chirping]

00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:02,400
This cuckoo singleton doesn't have
to worry about competing with siblings.
262
00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:06,800
Having the reed warblers'
sole attention has paid off,
263
00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:10,520
even if it's a bit of a tight squeeze.
264
00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:15,840
His surrogate parents
still don't notice anything unusual,
265
00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:19,440
but they face a relentless task,
266
00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:22,040
keeping up with his insatiable demands.

[thunder crashes]
273
00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:55,840
This committed pair goes
to any lengths to keep him protected.
274
00:21:56,680 --> 00:22:01,240
But it's hard to be an umbrella
for something five times your size.

[suspenseful music plays]
276
00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:20,920
He preens his feathers,
finally ready to fly the nest.

[suspenseful music continues]
278
00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:36,160
Luckily, he's found a soft landing.

[suspenseful music continues]
280
00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:43,960
His worn-out parents can't relax yet.
281
00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:49,640
He'll still claim free meals
for another couple of weeks.
282
00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:55,160
Until, at just two months old,
283
00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:59,480
he must fly
the 5,000-mile journey to Africa,
284
00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:05,560
to make his way all on his own
in the big, wide world.

[melancholy music plays]
286
00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:13,600
In Sri Lanka,
287
00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:18,160
orphan macaque Amma
is trying to fit in much closer to home.
288

[melancholy music continues]
289
00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:24,400
On her own,
290
00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:30,040
every day is a battle
to find food and to keep out of trouble,
291
00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:36,840
forever hoping for a comforting cuddle
from another member of the family.
292
00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:44,560
Today, the troop
has come to the lily pond.
293
00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:48,240
They love nothing more
than eating the juicy flower buds
294
00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:50,000
just beneath the surface.
295
00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:53,200
But they need to be careful.
296
00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:58,560
A water monitor lizard
is also a frequent visitor.
297
00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:04,440
And a small macaque
would be easy pickings.

[tense music plays]
299
00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:14,520
Even a big male is nervous.
300
00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:19,160
But little Amma is starving.
301
00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:24,200
And decides to take a risk.
302
00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:33,320
Ignored by the troop for so long,
all eyes are now on her.

[tense music fades]
305
00:24:55,120 --> 00:24:59,240
Amma's bravery has shown
the whole family there's nothing to fear.
306
00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:04,120
And where she leads, they follow.

[jaunty music plays]
308
00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:30,040
The lily buds are a welcome change
from fruits and leaves.
309
00:25:33,360 --> 00:25:37,080
And the feast
has almost everyone's attention.
310
00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:42,440
But Amma's learned
to keep watch for danger.
311

[tense music fades]
320
00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:16,920
Amma's quick thinking
321

sees the whole extended family
safe in the trees.
322
00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:26,840
Baby Zach and his top-ranking mom
have found the best spot...
323
00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:31,560
and everyone has someone to hug.

[melancholy music plays]

00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:36,160
Except Amma.

She may be small,
327
00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:44,040
but she's got a lot to offer.
328
00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:49,440
Surely, she's proved herself
a valuable member of the family.

Back in the embrace of her family.

00:27:45,360 --> 00:27:49,000
Amma's found the love
and warmth she was looking for,

00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:54,680
but other babies face a cold,
unwelcoming world from the off.
343
00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:57,560
For a little emperor penguin,

the freezing temperatures
are just one problem to deal with.
