00:38Incredible ingenuity, dedication, and extraordinary teamwork.
00:46This is what it takes to be a parent on our planet.
00:53Meet the hardworking parents, raising their families,
00:57doing all they can to protect and provide for the next generation.
01:07Discover the extraordinary ways animal parents navigate their world.
01:13But a changing planet is forcing them to adapt.
01:19Success for all parents has perhaps the greatest of consequences.
01:25It ensures the future of life on Earth.
01:32This is parenthood.
01:59A mother Oranutan in Borneo is building her bed for the night.
02:09First, a mattress of fresh leaves.
02:15Her young son, a few branches below, is getting to work on his own bunk.
02:24Not entirely successfully.
02:31It will take her almost a decade to prepare him for independence.
02:43Like many youngsters, he decides that his mother's bed is preferable.
02:51And climbs up for a cuddle.
03:01It takes years to perfect jungle living, and all rainforest parents learn to rely on the trees to protect and
03:11provide for them.
03:27Bhutan.
03:30A Himalayan kingdom where the forests are regarded as sacred.
03:39The jungles here provide a refuge for many rare species.
03:51Among them are some of our planet's most dedicated parents.
04:00Rufous-necked hornbills.
04:07Male and female pair for life, and each year they renew their bond.
04:15Raising a hornbill chick takes teamwork.
04:19The first step is to secure a good home.
04:32Unlike most birds, hornbills don't make nests, but prefer a hole in a tree.
04:50Fortunately, the ancient forests of Bhutan contain plenty of options.
05:00Once the pair have found one that seems suitable, the female starts collecting mud from the forest floor.
05:14With it, she builds a barrier across the entrance that will prevent any strangers from getting in.
05:27But she is now imprisoned.
05:32And she will remain so for the next hundred days.
05:47She will be totally reliant on her partner for food.
05:55He'd better be up to it.
06:01Fruit forms the bulk of his offerings.
06:10The caterpillar is a welcome treat, once carefully prepared.
06:20Most of the time, the food is gratefully received.
06:28But not always.
06:29But not always.
06:42The lack of choice is beginning to get to her.
06:53The male works hard to maintain his daily deliveries.
06:58The male works hard to maintain his daily deliveries.
07:00His commitment is total.
07:03The female works hard to maintain long of his marriage.
07:03That is enquanto rope moves probably around the home.
07:18A Minnie's right around the home.
07:18But then, one beak becomes two.
07:30Their growing chick is thriving, but the nursery is becoming increasingly cramped and a touch
07:41grubby. Dad does his best to keep them both properly fed.
07:54But conditions inside the nest are now almost unbearable.
08:03Finally, after three months of imprisonment, she decides the time has come to leave.
08:13And to introduce her chick to the outside world.
08:23The male now starts to withhold food. A clear sign that he too thinks that the time has come.
08:35She starts to chip away at the baked mud.
08:47Her slight muscles are stiff and weak.
08:56Inch by inch, she squeezes her way out.
09:08Freedom again.
09:16Her chick, however, needs more time.
09:22The world seems rather daunting.
09:26His father swoops in to offer some encouragement.
09:34It's time to go.
09:44All his parents can do now is watch.
09:50The chick's journey inevitably has to begin with a leap of faith.
10:21He is ungainly and awkward.
10:29But that could have been a lot worse.
10:35They'll remain by his side for the next six months.
10:49Jungles may appear to be full of opportunities.
10:54But competition for homes can be intense.
11:01This Sri Lankan pug-nosed frog has been lucky.
11:06He's bagged a prime location.
11:10It even has a pool in the basement.
11:21And it's not long before an interested female arrives.
11:33And it's not long before an interest.
11:34Their embrace can last for days.
11:44But as soon as the eggs are laid, the female leaves.
11:49He is now on his own.
11:53A single parent.
12:01His new brood quickly attracts unwanted attention.
12:09Frog's eggs are food for many jungle creatures.
12:16He can protect them from some of the smaller threats.
12:24But he has little defense against the bigger ones.
12:33The tiger tarantula with a leg span the size of a human face.
12:41It can paralyze its victims with a single venomous bite.
12:51Almost nothing is safe from it.
13:00Almost nothing is safe from it.
13:16The small frog isotional to them.
13:17The little frog bravely holds his ground.
13:28The little frog bravely holds his ground.
13:44Actually, these two have met before.
13:51They both live in the same tree hole.
13:57The tarantula has a nice dry penthouse at the top, while the frog prefers the damp basement.
14:14The stay-at-home frog keeps the place clean and free of ants, and the spider acts as a
14:24full-time security guard.
14:32Together they make an excellent team.
14:39One that ensures a future for two entirely different families.
15:02For some parents, finding a suitable home is just the start of a very long journey.
15:11Learning the intricacies of the jungle can take a lifetime.
15:19And in the forests of Borneo, the amount of food on offer varies hugely each year.
15:30Orangutans have an encyclopedic knowledge of the forests.
15:36They not only know which plants are safe to eat, but when and where to look for them.
15:48This knowledge is passed down to their young, and today's lesson begins with a pandanus plant.
15:56A meal of its leaves is an excellent way to start the day.
16:13Bibi is an experienced mother, and has been giving her son Bias daily lessons for the last seven years.
16:22Bibi makes it a friend of mine out of his life.
16:28How did you get the help of the field in the world?
16:29Bibi's anθΉ΄γ of a bird sentry.
16:29Bibi's an rundown ambushed the solitary animals.
16:34If Bias is eventually to survive on his own, Bibi has a lot of work to do.
16:50She will need to show him everything the forest has to offer, including where to find over
17:00300 different kinds of food.
17:09Like all orangs, Bibi is vulnerable on the ground, but down here, there is important food.
17:25Termites.
17:28They are packed with nutrients, an important supplement for their regular diet.
17:35Bias isn't yet brave enough to sample them, but at least he is paying attention.
17:49A varied diet can be the difference between life and death.
17:58And at his age, Bias should really be fending for himself, but he still relies on his mother
18:05to show him the best bits.
18:17There is no shortage of leaves.
18:25But even so, he wants those particular ones that his mother is eating.
18:40And she is beginning to find that very irritating.
18:52Eventually, he gets the message and finds a branch of his own.
19:11Large fig trees are few and far between, and you have to know when they will be full of fruit,
19:18if you are not to make unnecessary journeys.
19:26They've timed their visit perfectly.
19:28Hundreds of figs are beginning to ripen.
19:36Bibi has devoted nearly a decade of her life to each of her children.
19:43Bias is approaching the end of his training and will soon need to branch out on his own.
20:01Leaving his devoted mother will be one of the most difficult moments in his life.
20:12And he isn't quite ready for it.
20:15Yet.
20:31Iguazu National Park in Argentina.
20:41The mother, Kawati, is in her nest with a litter of kits.
20:51She has looked after them with great care since the day they were born.
20:57But now they are close to independence and she is able to start foraging further.
21:10Kawati live in tight social groups and the adults take turns to care for each other's young.
21:22And keep them out of harm's way.
21:29As one mother disappears into the canopy, the other is left in charge.
21:36And she is going to have her work cut out.
21:42The kits are just about manageable when in the trees.
21:48But once on the ground, it becomes total chaos.
22:09The babysitter is doing her best.
22:18But every time one of the missing kits is found, another wanders off.
22:31It's a babysitter's nightmare.
22:56Meanwhile, the other female is enjoying some quiet time on the other side of the river.
23:11She calls to the group.
23:21But the babysitter knows that the kits would find it difficult to make the crossing.
23:29They've become separated.
23:40The babysitter, however, has an idea.
23:46She has learned to use something that previous generations didn't have.
23:53A bridge.
24:12She just has to get the youngsters across it unscathed.
24:15She counts as a kid in her.
24:45The visitor rounds up the final straggler and carries him to safety.
25:07With the group reunited, everyone has had quite enough adventure for one day.
25:17By sharing parental responsibilities, these kawajis now successfully raise more offspring than they could ever do on their own.
25:33Jungle parents have to be endlessly resourceful.
25:39And the forests of Jamaica are now home to a creature whose ancestors were once ocean-goers,
25:47but who now live in the tiny pools of water that form at the base of jungle plants.
25:57This is a mother bromeliad crab.
26:05But her new home isn't perfect.
26:08It requires constant maintenance.
26:14Dead leaves fall into it.
26:18And that just won't do.
26:22The leaves have got to be removed.
26:31For her growing brood, nothing is too much trouble.
26:41Cleaning the nursery is just the start.
26:48For the first ten days, the tiny crabs don't have hard shells
26:54and are easily picked off by hungry predators.
27:09They're totally defenceless.
27:16Fortunately, their industrious mother knows just the thing.
27:22The forest is littered with snail shells rich in calcium.
27:33She drops a few into the nursery pool where they will dissolve and can then be reabsorbed by the tiny
27:40crablets,
27:41helping them to toughen up.
27:48Managing her nursery pool is a daily battle.
27:53Too many leaves.
27:56More shells to find.
27:58And each day, she risks losing more of her brood.
28:16When eventually the youngster's shells have hardened,
28:19she has to provide them with food.
28:28She doesn't leave the safety of her bromeli at home,
28:31but relies on food coming to her.
28:37A millipede in search of a meal of decomposing leaves.
28:45She readies herself.
28:52It won't be easy, but there's a bounty to be had.
29:12She eventually gets to grips with her capture,
29:17and breaks it up into bite-sized chunks.
29:23She eventually gets to grips with her capture,
29:27the body of the millipede.
29:29The body of the millipede will not only feed her whole family,
29:31but will also help to further strengthen the crablets' shells.
29:40The crablets love the guts best.
29:53The mother crab has managed to create an environment that suits her family.
30:01But some jungles are now being transformed in ways that make raising young almost impossible.
30:14The cast forests of southern China.
30:20The limestone peaks are home to one of the rarest of monkeys.
30:28The white-headed langa.
30:39This infant is one of the last of his kind.
30:44It's precious not just to his mother, but for the future of his entire species.
30:53A ledge high up these vertical cliffs may be a safe place to sleep.
31:02But it's less than perfect as a nursery.
31:11Travelling around up here is not for the inexperienced.
31:17But eventually, all langas must learn to master the rock face.
31:35Fortunately, there are plenty of others willing to lend a hand.
31:44Young langas can spend as much as a third of their time under the care of other females.
31:56Around mid-morning, the group begin their daily descent to the base of their pinnacle.
32:06One false step here could be fatal.
32:27But this is the place where their mothers find their food.
32:44Whilst their babies are free to develop their climbing skills.
32:57Langas need a variety of fresh leaves every day.
33:03Not long ago, the troop had a much larger forest territory.
33:09But they have become isolated on their rocky island.
33:16Which is now entirely surrounded by farmland.
33:20Which is now entirely surrounded by farmland.
33:25The patches of jungle that remain have become increasingly rare.
33:39A couple of outsiders have been spotted approaching through the fields.
33:50Looking to take over the island.
34:00Rival males will kill the offspring of others.
34:09Rival males will kill the offspring of others.
34:23Leaving the rest of the troops to resist the attack.
34:39The intruders have been repelled for now.
34:45But not everyone has gone unscathed.
34:57The troop begin the long climb back up.
35:05The mother and her precious cargo carefully work their way up the cliff.
35:16The wards are near vertical.
35:18And the holds razor thin.
35:40These langurs have adapted to this perilous habitat.
35:47And their island refuge provides the mother and her baby with a safe haven.
35:53For now.
35:57But one day, the youngster will be forced to leave his mother's family.
36:03And establish a territory of his own.
36:08And that will not be easy.
36:15Forest habitat is being lost all over the world.
36:19But nowhere is this more pronounced.
36:22Than in the Brazilian Amazon.
36:28Every year, vast swathes of jungle are deliberately set on fire.
36:36Leaving millions of animal parents homeless.
36:42Many are forced to find refuge in nearby patches of forest.
36:47Many are forced to find refuge in nearby patches of forest.
36:58Among them, a particularly rare and seldom seen creature.
37:04An Amazonian tapir.
37:07A close relative of rhinos.
37:09And South America's largest land mammal.
37:21A young calf sticks close by her side.
37:34They are in search of a new territory.
37:37Which has the resources they need to survive.
37:41They are in search of a new territory.
37:42And we'll find a new territory.
37:49The forest will not have only one or two.
37:56And it is very rare.
37:58So,ΡΠ΅Π² Astro in the border.
37:58This is a great way to find refuge in the wilderness.
37:58And you will find a new territory of the forest.
37:58You will find it today.
37:58Mm-hmm.
38:02The forest will find it in the forest.
38:03If there are other places, it's just to live.
38:03Finding enough vegetation to eat is not a problem.
38:09But many jungle plants lack crucial minerals and some contain a mix of toxic chemicals.
38:24Over time these toxins can build up in a tapir's body.
38:31Eventually, some need to seek out a remedy.
38:39She leads her young calf upstream in the hope of finding the cure.
38:46The female knew where to go in the patch of forest where she was born.
38:52But as her former territory continues to burn behind her, she's forced to look for somewhere
39:00new.
39:14As night falls, the jungle comes alive.
39:35Using her keen sense of smell, she cautiously guides her calf through the forest.
39:50The more animals they encounter, the closer they're likely to be to their destination.
40:03She can smell something familiar in the darkness.
40:19Clay.
40:21The remedy that she and her calf so badly need.
40:30It's thought the clay neutralizes the toxins and provides essential minerals lacking in
40:37their diet.
40:41others arrive, all searching for the same thing, the particular chemical compounds within this
40:52clay.
40:58As more tapir arrive, they dig into the soil, making it accessible to other less powerful species.
41:22The location of this clay lick is a crucial part of the calf's education.
41:30There are unique sites like this all over the Amazon, including many that have not yet been identified by humans.
41:41Even the most remote forests on Earth are no longer immune from modern disturbances.
41:50The daintree in northern Australia.
41:55Dinosaurs once lived here.
42:03And their feathered descendants still prowl the understory today.
42:10A casserie.
42:13A casserie.
42:13This one is nicknamed crinkle.
42:21He's nearly 45 years old.
42:24And like all casserie fathers, he has the responsibility of rearing the young.
42:34Success is never guaranteed, and this year is tougher than ever.
42:41It's the middle of the dry season.
42:46Crinkle's head cask helps him shed heat quickly.
42:54But his chicks have no such defense.
42:58In these temperatures, they need to drink almost every day if they're to survive.
43:05But it has hardly rained for months.
43:11The forest is parched, and many of the riverbeds are dry.
43:34Crinkle breaks up some fruit for his chicks, but it won't sustain them for long.
43:49Crinkle breaks down the ground.
44:00He must find water.
44:06there is a remote pool at the far limit of his territory
44:11the journey there is risky
44:15but his chicks are hungry and thirsty
44:18and increasingly desperate
44:24even in a good year
44:26only 50% of Kasseri chicks survive
44:31he urges them on
44:39they must be cautious
44:41the search for water is drawing other animals into the area
44:50feral pigs introduced by humans
44:53are now abundant in these forests
44:59following their scent wild dingoes are also moving in
45:07both of these animals are known to kill Kasseri chicks
45:17Kwinkel is by no means defenseless
45:19his razor-sharp talons are effective weapons
45:24but he will be unable to save his chicks
45:27if they don't find water soon
45:44at last
45:52and for now
45:54they are alone
46:13the oasis provides precious relief
46:22and what is more
46:24the Kwan Dong tree here
46:26is full of fruit
46:28a food much relished by Kasseri's
46:37and in return
46:38the Kasseri distribute the seeds
46:41around the forest
46:43helping the trees to spread
46:56all over the world
46:58animals and trees depend on each other
47:06but there are some trees
47:07that do more than we ever thought possible
47:16a 200 year old
47:18ajo tree in Costa Rica
47:21covered in golden blooms
47:27as one of the largest trees in the area
47:30it has unrestricted access to the sun
47:38however for the saplings growing on the forest floor
47:41collecting the relatively little light to filters down
47:45isn't quite so easy
47:50but the ajo tree's influence is great
47:58its immense canopy absorbs the sunlight
48:03using its energy to synthesize sugars in its leaves
48:08which then circulate through its branches
48:11right down to its roots
48:17here it collaborates with microscopic fungi
48:20and it distributes excess nutrients
48:23to the tiny saplings nearby
48:28this underground network
48:30enables trees to support
48:32the next generation
48:40these complex relationships
48:42take years to establish
48:46and it's clear
48:47that as trees age
48:49they become increasingly important
48:51for the forest
48:52acting as protectors
48:54and providers
48:55for the whole ecosystem
48:59a cavity in the ajo's ancient trunk
49:03provides a home
49:04for a family of bats
49:18and thousands of insects
