Animal Society

We explore the Animal Kingdom and look closely at how animal tribes/families live together. The family dynamic – the role of mum and dad, the competition and bonding between the offspring, when do they leave their patch/home to start their own ? We see common themes in how animal families work and live together, protect each other and then go off to fend for themselves across a range of species. Some couples pair for life, some adopt orphans, some extended families include many generations taking care of the babies, in some cases the dad acts like the mum.
