Born to Be Wild

From Friday 19 December, Apple TV

When it comes to endangered animals, every creature counts – which is why the babies featured in Apple TV's six-part wildlife documentary Born to Be Wild could be the key to ensuring their species' survival.

The series follows six youngsters – a moon-bear cub, an elephant calf, a penguin chick, a lemur pup, cheetah cubs and a lynx kitten – who have either been orphaned or were born into conservation projects. Cameras follow their progress as their human carers teach them the life skills they will need before they can be rewilded.
