We’ll show how wild babies differ from their parents, and explain why those differences are needed — in behavior, coloration, and even in voice. We’ll tell how the young learn vital skills that only older individuals, their parents, can teach them.

Is it true that baby koalas simply cannot sleep and cry nonstop until their mothers come to hold and comfort them? What should be done if a young koala is orphaned?

What dangers do camel calves face during their first months of life? How do the first two weeks go for long-eared hedgehogs when they still lack hardened spines and are easy prey for birds of prey and foxes? Is it true that pandas often risk crushing their own cubs, since the newborns are almost a thousand times smaller than their mothers (about 1/900 of the mother's size) — one of the largest size differences between newborns and mothers among mammals? Is it true that life at high altitude forces llamas to give birth mainly between 8 a.m. and noon, during the warmer daytime hours? Otherwise, their young are at risk of dying from hypothermia during the cold Andean nights. What do emperor penguin fathers do when they have incubated an egg, but the chick hatches and the mother does not return? Is it true that, in that case, the father abandons the chick, dooming it to freezing and starvation — because otherwise, neither would survive? Is it true that seal pups, if not born with pure white fur, would be eaten by predators on their very first day?
