My (Animal) Family & Me

[Astro]

I wish I had posted this before now because time is running out to see them, but there are some brilliant documentaries on BBC iPlayer, if you're in Britain.

Polar Bear Family

A species under threat of global warming http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b01py626/the-polar-bear-family-me-1-spring

Snow Wolf Family

Nature at work in this one http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b04w7wnf/snow-wolf-family-and-me-episode-1

(Black) Bear Family

Just how close can scientists get to this species in the wild without using force? http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b00x9yfv/the-bear-family-and-me-1-spring

Gorilla Family

I've not seen this one, but this is another species threatened by human activity. http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b06ts2dp/gorilla-family-me-episode-1

Some of those are a few years old so you might find them available in Sunny Australia & other places. They're all centred on the raising of the cubs & the ways that they manage to survive as a family.

I have cubs and that was exactly what I needed to here just then Thanks Astro..
