1
00:00:12,040 --> 00:00:15,280
Many tales have been told of Africa.

2
00:00:18,200 --> 00:00:20,560
But this is our story.

3
00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:22,040
ELEPHANTS TRUMPET

4
00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:26,400
A drama set in the heart
of our world,

5
00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:29,240
experienced as we
live and breathe it.

6
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:37,560
As we fought for our families...

7
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:41,880
..competition grew fierce.

8
00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:46,280
Armies were built...

9
00:00:47,480 --> 00:00:49,960
..battles waged.

10
00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:53,040
Now we face the final reckoning.

11
00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:58,320
Here is the last chapter
of this story

12
00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:01,920
in a place they call Serengeti.

13
00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:11,280


14
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:16,200


15
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:18,560
ELEPHANTS TRUMPET

16
00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:38,320
In our land, lives are determined
by the whim of others.

17
00:01:38,320 --> 00:01:42,160
In these moments,
our fate is decided.

18
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:50,680
Each day, the great herds journey
far just to quench their thirst.

19
00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:55,120
THEY GRUNT

20
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:57,600
Gnu is among them...

21
00:01:57,600 --> 00:01:59,520
GRUNTING CONTINUES

22
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:03,040
..blissfully unaware of what
lurks below.

23
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:14,040
GRUNTING BECOMES AGITATED

24
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:23,760
CROCODILE SNARLS

25
00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:35,160
CROCODILE SNARLS

26
00:02:42,640 --> 00:02:46,560
Gnu escapes, but others won't.

27
00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:52,000
CROCODILE SNARLS

28
00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:57,920
GRUNTING CONTINUES

29
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:07,160
In the mayhem, mothers
and calves must stay together.

30
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:11,320
THEY GRUNT AND CHITTER

31
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:21,280
BARKING

32
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:23,800
Gnu survived this test.

33
00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:27,560
GRUNTING

34
00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:31,280
He found his mother, too.

35
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:33,480
GRUNTING AND BARKING

36
00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:38,920
ZEBRAS YELP AND WHINNY

37
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,840
Shani and her foal also
made it back.

38
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:49,560
But the river is still calling.

39
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:57,200
Soon the herds will return, as their
moment of reckoning arrives.

40
00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:02,520
The great river crossing awaits.

41
00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:22,720
Tamu's mother was
killed by the black-maned lions.

42
00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:32,240
Now his only company are those
he passes.

43
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:36,200
GRUNTING

44
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:39,920
WILDEBEEST SNORTS

45
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:46,600
WISTFUL MUSIC

46
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:50,560
A lonely fawn has few friends.

47
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:59,120


48
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:02,720


49
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:08,120


50
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:12,680


51
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:18,600
ZEBRAS WHINNY

52
00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:22,520
Tamu has many enemies.

53
00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:25,520
SQUEALING AND NEIGHING

54
00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:34,360

00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:36,680
TAMU SNORTS

00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:39,800
YELPING AND CHITTERING

57
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:56,360
He has gained both speed
and experience...

58
00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:02,200
HE MOANS

59
00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:07,440
..but without his mother to
shield him,

60
00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:11,280
Tamu is fair game for every
passing predator.

61
00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:18,520
SQUAWKING

62
00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:27,200
There's no greater
threat to the young

63
00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:30,400
and innocent than a river
that must be crossed.

64
00:06:32,840 --> 00:06:36,600
THEY GRUNT

65
00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:46,240
From far and wide,
the herds are gathering.

66
00:06:59,840 --> 00:07:04,920
Above the fray, life for the baboons
has taken a turn for the better...

67
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:07,160
..especially for Bakari.

68
00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:09,520
HE GULPS

69
00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:14,680
The rival males have
settled into the troop.

70
00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:17,360
SHE SQUEALS

71
00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:20,520
Cheka is no longer threatened...

72
00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:23,600
..and she and Bibi have made peace.

73
00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:26,280
THEY GRUNT

74
00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:31,520
But there's plenty to
disturb their new-found harmony.

75
00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:35,000
SOFT CALLS

76
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:39,240
With the migration surging,
the herds are everywhere.

77
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:44,120
CALLING CONTINUES

78
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:49,400
Fine when you are above it all...

79
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:51,720
..not so peaceful

80
00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:53,440
when you come to ground.

81
00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:58,560
HE BARKS

82
00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:01,600
GRUNTING
He's facing an invasion.

83
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:09,240
THEY GRUNT, HE BARKS

84
00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:17,160
WILDEBEEST SNORTS

85
00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:20,480
Where Bakari leads,
the others go, too.

86
00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:24,120
BARKING AND GRUNTING

87
00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:27,600
SQUAWKING AND YELPING

88
00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:38,960
Cheka must consider her baby.

89
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:49,720
She'll pick her moment.

90
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:58,040
BABOONS SCREECH

91
00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:00,480
But they're everywhere!

92
00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:07,960
CHITTERING AND SCREECHING

93
00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:17,520
And still they come.

94
00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:21,640
THEY GRUNT

95
00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:23,400
WILDEBEEST SNORTS

96
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:29,280

WILDEBEEST BLEATS

98
00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:52,840
Bakari must find his troop safe
refuge, far from the chaos.

99
00:09:57,160 --> 00:09:59,400
Tamu is in the thick of it...

100
00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:06,400
..away from the herd to which he
belongs.

101
00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:09,160
MOURNFUL STRING MELODY

102
00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:23,960
Here, orphans are easily lost...

103
00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:28,800
INSECTS BUZZ

104
00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:41,840
..and sometimes found.

105
00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:00,760


106
00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:05,200


107
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:08,720


108
00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:17,920


109
00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:22,280


110
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:25,160


111
00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:27,760
He will never find his mother...

112
00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:31,640
..but he will find family...

113
00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:40,360
..and company his own age.

114
00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:48,080
He'll need their protection.

115
00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:50,720
Threats are everywhere.

116
00:12:00,560 --> 00:12:05,280
The cheetahs still depend
on their mother for everything.

117
00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:11,840
While Duma was lost
and alone he struggled to survive.

118
00:12:19,560 --> 00:12:22,880
He still relies on Aiysha
to catch a meal...

119
00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:24,640
WILDEBEEST GRUNT

120
00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:30,920
..and just plays at hunting.

121
00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:44,120
He must show that he can
hunt for real...

122
00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:45,960
GRUNTING CONTINUES

123
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:55,120
..and keep focus.

124
00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:56,960
HE YELPS

125
00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:26,720
For Aiysha, a gazelle herd is
rich in opportunities...

126
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:31,320
..an orphaned fawn almost too easy.

127
00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:41,440
Once more, Aiysha takes the lead.

128
00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:55,840
TAMU YELPS

129
00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:11,480
But she's misjudged him.

130
00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:16,760
Tamu doesn't make it easy.

131
00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:35,880
His agility's saved him.

132
00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:39,320
GAZELLES PANT

133
00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:41,680
Aiysha hasn't fared so well.

134
00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:49,680
The twists and turns
took their toll.

135
00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:56,640
The great huntress is wounded.

136
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:11,120
And just like that, suddenly her
cubs must hunt for themselves.

137
00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:20,200
We all must face our own
rite of passage.

138
00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:29,360
For the zebras, that time is
fast approaching.

139
00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:39,680
They're on the move once more.

140
00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:48,160
Shani's foal stays close
to his mother.

141
00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:51,360
His whole life has led to
this moment.

142
00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:11,040
Today they must cross the river.

143
00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:16,080
The waters are rising...

144
00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:26,960
..and enemies wait in its depths.

145
00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:38,760
SQUAWKING

146
00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:18,960
Where there's danger, Punda,
their stallion, goes first.

147
00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:22,640
SNORTING AND WHINNYING

148
00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:26,280
Shani's foal needs all
the protection he can give.

149
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:31,080
HE BARKS

150
00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:34,040
Punda tests the waters.

151
00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:38,520
YELPING AND BARKING

152
00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:45,520
The foal's fate rests
on what he finds.

153
00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:51,600
SNORTING

154
00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:55,120
YELPING AND BARKING

155
00:17:55,120 --> 00:17:59,000
If all goes well,
they must be ready to follow.

156
00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:01,560
SNORTING

157
00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:08,520
YELPING AND BARKING CONTINUE

158
00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:11,960
They are wise to wait.

159
00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:16,560
CROCODILE SNARLS

160
00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:40,040
Punda's already in too deep...

161
00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:41,760
PUNDA SNORTS

162
00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:46,720
..although still alert to danger.

163
00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:48,760
CROCODILE SNARLS

164
00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:53,640
ZEBRAS WHINNY

165
00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:04,000
They must find a safer
place to cross.

166
00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:07,160
THEY BARK

167
00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:23,480
With Aiysha injured,
Duma's life has changed again.

168
00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:33,240
His protector is now in his care.

169
00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:39,120
PURRING

170
00:19:39,120 --> 00:19:42,840
A terrible time for an old
foe to appear.

171
00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:51,520
PURRING CONTINUES

172
00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:55,160
KALI PANTS

173
00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:11,160
THEY HISS

174
00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:14,400
Duma outwitted Kali
when he was lost and alone.

175
00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:25,240
Now he has a wounded mother
to defend.

176
00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:28,720
KALI GROWLS, DUMA HISSES

177
00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:37,000
He stands his ground,
ready to fight.

178
00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:42,080
KALI PANTS

179
00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:45,040
But Kali has a more
troubling enemy.

180
00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:55,560
Askari, leader of the black-maned
males, is following her.

181
00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:58,360
SNARLING

182
00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:05,440
THEY HISS

183
00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:08,520
He could kill Duma with
just one swipe...

184
00:21:08,520 --> 00:21:10,560
HISSING AND SNARLING CONTINUE

185
00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:12,960
..but to Askari, the cub is
irrelevant.

186
00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:22,120
He took down Sefu,
a lion from Kali's pride...

187
00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:28,960
..and he's been tracking Kali ever
since.

188
00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:38,600
She's luring him away from her cubs
and followers.

189
00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:40,640
SNARLING

190
00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:48,920
He may be feared by most, but Kali
doesn't seem to fear him now.

191
00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:55,080
SNARLING CONTINUES

192
00:21:57,240 --> 00:22:00,960
What's changed?

193
00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:04,360
PANTING AND SNARLING

194
00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:10,840
For now, he can stay,
but on her terms.

195
00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:13,440
THEY SNARL

196
00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:23,680
Kali seems in control...

197
00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:27,680
ASKARI SNARLS

198
00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:33,200
..but some things are beyond her
control.

199
00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:35,560
BUFFALO SNORTS

200
00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:38,960
BUFFALO GRUNTS

201
00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:41,360
Askari may be feared...

202
00:22:41,360 --> 00:22:43,000
BUFFALO SNORTS

203
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:46,200
..but the buffalo see an
opportunity.

204
00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:48,160
BUFFALO GRUNTS

205
00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:51,920
KALI SNARLS

206
00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:54,920
SNORTING AND GRUNTING

207
00:22:54,920 --> 00:22:58,160
SNARLING

208
00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:04,080
BUFFALO SNORTS

209
00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:06,880
For Kali, a chance to
escape from Askari...

210
00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:08,760
SNARLING

211
00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:12,000
BUFFALO GRUNTS AND SNORTS

212
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:13,920
..but does she want to?

213
00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:22,560
SNORTING

214
00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:26,160
Shani is seeking a safer crossing
point for her foal and family.

215
00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:28,480
SNORTING CONTINUES

216
00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:46,000
CHITTERING AND SNORTING

217
00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:48,720
Other families are already
crossing...

218
00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:53,520
..but they have no foal to care for.

219
00:23:55,880 --> 00:23:59,760
Shani will wait...

220
00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:01,760
..see how the other families fare.

221
00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:05,240
SNORTING

222
00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:13,560
WHINNYING

223
00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:18,280
SNORTING

224
00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:29,040
SNORTING AND WHINNYING CONTINUE

225
00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:36,800
All seems fine...

226
00:24:39,360 --> 00:24:42,640
..and her foal will
be safer in the midst of the throng.

227
00:24:49,120 --> 00:24:53,320
ZEBRAS SPLASH AND WHINNY

228
00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:56,640
But no crossing is without risk.

229
00:24:56,640 --> 00:25:00,480
The sound is an invitation
to a feast.

230
00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:02,120
CROCODILE SNARLS

231
00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:38,040
Stragglers pay the price.

232
00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:46,800
Shani and her foal have far to go...

233
00:25:53,120 --> 00:25:55,680
..and where there is one crocodile,
there are many.

234
00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:29,480
Shani keeps her foal close.

235
00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:31,280
Crocodiles pick their moment...

236
00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:47,520
..and if they miss, move on.

237
00:26:56,880 --> 00:26:59,640
But it's not over for the foal.

238
00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:02,280
GRUNTING AND BARKING

239
00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:12,680
He meets an immovable object.

240
00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:15,600
HIPPOS GRUNT AND GROWL

241
00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:35,760
There are plenty more...

242
00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:38,920
THEY GRUNT AND BLEAT

243
00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:41,160
..and they can appear from nowhere.

244
00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:43,640
GRUNTING AND SPLASHING

245
00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:03,800
Attack is often the best defence.

246
00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:21,560
He survived his rite of passage.

247
00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:36,600
Shani's family faced their moment
of truth.

248
00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:40,040
All overcame.

249
00:28:43,920 --> 00:28:45,960
THEY BARK

250
00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:53,680
Lush new pastures will be
their reward.

251
00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:07,760
Today, the elephants won't be
facing the crossing.

252
00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:13,800
Instead, it's playtime.

253
00:29:34,640 --> 00:29:38,200
Kadogo is at the centre of it all.

254
00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:39,200
UPBEAT SINGING

255
00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:16,360
The games end when Nalla,
the great matriarch, decides.

256
00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:32,000
Kali has allowed Askari to follow...

257
00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:40,320
..always keeping him one step
behind.

258
00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:45,880
Foes making peace...

259
00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:48,320
..or something more?

260
00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:50,280
THEY GROWL

261
00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:57,760
Kali broke the rules.

262
00:30:57,760 --> 00:31:01,600
She had her cubs with
a lion from outside her pride.

263
00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:11,200
Askari was that lion.

264
00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:23,960
Her journey has taken her
full circle.

265
00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:34,200
She's back with the father
of her cubs.

266
00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:21,200
Nalla will always protect
her family.

267
00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:23,760
GROWLING

268
00:32:23,760 --> 00:32:26,760
Even Askari won't
take elephants on alone.

269
00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:33,200
ASKARI GROWLS, ELEPHANT TRUMPETS

270
00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:42,200
And for the new couple...

271
00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:44,040
ELEPHANTS TRUMPET

272
00:32:44,040 --> 00:32:47,240
..there are far better things to do.

273
00:32:49,080 --> 00:32:52,160
WISTFUL SINGING

274
00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:02,240
All our lives are guided by chance
and by the seasons.

275
00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:09,320
SOFT BLEATS

276
00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:15,720
LOUDER BLEATS

277
00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:28,520
THEY BLEAT

278
00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:37,840
It's time for the wildebeest
to leave, too.

279
00:33:44,200 --> 00:33:49,160
As numbers build, the pressure to
move on becomes overwhelming.

280
00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:55,920
THEY BLEAT

281
00:34:20,920 --> 00:34:24,160
Gnu and his mother are trapped
in the throng.

282
00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:37,200
As the herds move, so must they.

283
00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:39,560
THEY BLEAT AND GRUNT

284
00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:52,200
Gnu's mother is first to see what
lies ahead.

285
00:34:53,960 --> 00:34:57,080
A near-vertical drop.

286
00:34:58,280 --> 00:34:59,720
SHE HONKS

287
00:35:02,080 --> 00:35:04,600
One too steep for Gnu.

288
00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:12,520
But the river must be crossed...

289
00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:19,280
..and pressure's growing from
behind.

290
00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:24,280
THEY BLEAT AND GRUNT

291
00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:37,680
Gnu and his mother will wait
if they can.

292
00:35:41,960 --> 00:35:44,920
But they can't wait for long.

293
00:35:51,320 --> 00:35:53,800
Tempers are fraying.

294
00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:01,680
BLEATING INTENSIFIES

295
00:36:18,960 --> 00:36:21,520
For Gnu, it's now or never.

296
00:36:52,040 --> 00:36:55,480
He made it this far...

297
00:36:55,480 --> 00:36:57,520
..but it's just the beginning.

298
00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:07,480
The deadly river is waiting.

299
00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:10,440
SNORTING AND BLEATING

300
00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:15,720
WISTFUL MUSIC

301
00:37:21,280 --> 00:37:24,120
SQUAWKING

302
00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:26,160
As we grow,

303
00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:29,760
we prepare for our defining moment -
whenever it might be.

304
00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:46,680
Aiysha is wounded
and unable to hunt.

305
00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:52,520
To save his mother,
Duma must grow up fast.

306
00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:04,400
Even walking has become a burden.

307
00:38:24,360 --> 00:38:27,320
Chasing prey will be impossible.

308
00:38:30,160 --> 00:38:32,400
THEY CHITTER

309
00:38:39,680 --> 00:38:41,760
WILDEBEEST GULPS

310
00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:46,200
Aiysha needs to rest.

311
00:38:49,040 --> 00:38:51,320
Her leg is troubling her.

312
00:38:56,160 --> 00:38:58,160
The cubs will comfort her...

313
00:38:58,160 --> 00:38:59,520
PURRING

314
00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:15,040
..and let the prey come to them.

315
00:39:21,320 --> 00:39:23,800
SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC

316
00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:28,040
Will Duma seize the moment?

317
00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:37,360
He leads the charge.

318
00:40:02,320 --> 00:40:06,040
Aiysha will go hungry once more.

319
00:40:06,040 --> 00:40:10,080
Duma had the power,
but not the focus.

320
00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:18,200
If the cubs can't hunt
and neither can their mother,

321
00:40:18,200 --> 00:40:20,840
none of them will survive.

322
00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:23,000
PURRING

323
00:40:31,240 --> 00:40:34,960
For the wildebeest, their moment
of reckoning has arrived.

324
00:40:39,440 --> 00:40:42,960
Nothing is more dangerous
or claims more lives.

325
00:40:57,040 --> 00:40:59,040
Gnu is still waiting with
his mother...

326
00:41:03,120 --> 00:41:05,320
..as the frontrunners
take the plunge.

327
00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:24,520
It's good to go early,
before the pressure builds.

328
00:41:35,920 --> 00:41:38,880
For Gnu, it's a leap
into the unknown.

329
00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:43,480
Anything can happen.

330
00:42:22,560 --> 00:42:25,360
CROCODILE SNARLS

331
00:42:33,560 --> 00:42:35,400
Crocodiles seek out the young.

332
00:43:01,000 --> 00:43:04,880
But the herd acts as a shield...

333
00:43:04,880 --> 00:43:07,080
..and sometimes a deadly decoy.

334
00:43:26,120 --> 00:43:29,160
As numbers build,
every crocodile can feast.

335
00:43:44,000 --> 00:43:47,240
Gnu, as always,
stays close to his mother.

336
00:43:54,080 --> 00:43:56,320
This time, she's the target.

337
00:44:01,840 --> 00:44:04,000
One too strong to take down.

338
00:44:18,920 --> 00:44:20,440
The most dangerous time is

339
00:44:20,440 --> 00:44:22,360
when the end is in sight.

340
00:44:22,360 --> 00:44:24,400
CROCODILE HISSES

341
00:44:24,400 --> 00:44:26,320
And Gnu is on his own.

342
00:44:33,480 --> 00:44:35,160
CROCODILE SNARLS

343
00:44:44,160 --> 00:44:46,760
It's not over.

344
00:44:46,760 --> 00:44:48,880
Saved on a whim...

345
00:44:51,200 --> 00:44:52,720
CROCODILE INHALES

346
00:44:58,360 --> 00:45:01,040
..and Gnu's
determination to survive.

347
00:45:09,080 --> 00:45:11,520
But he needs his mother.

348
00:45:14,840 --> 00:45:17,000
She's still out there somewhere.

349
00:45:32,440 --> 00:45:35,120
In the panic, escape from one
danger...

350
00:45:35,120 --> 00:45:36,520
CROCODILE SNARLS

351
00:45:36,520 --> 00:45:38,880
..leads to another.

352
00:45:54,400 --> 00:45:56,040
THEY GRUNT

353
00:45:56,040 --> 00:45:58,360
But even crocodiles are
struggling.

354
00:46:02,200 --> 00:46:05,160
Gnu can wait but more are coming.

355
00:46:05,160 --> 00:46:08,800
THEY CALL

356
00:46:12,080 --> 00:46:14,480
The herds seem never-ending.

357
00:46:15,520 --> 00:46:18,160
CALLING CONTINUES

358
00:46:31,440 --> 00:46:34,800
How can he find his mother in this?

359
00:47:01,640 --> 00:47:04,680
Where does he even start to look?

360
00:47:22,120 --> 00:47:24,120
He can't fight this tide.

361
00:47:27,960 --> 00:47:29,840
No-one can.

362
00:47:29,840 --> 00:47:32,680
WILDEBEEST SNORTS

363
00:47:35,440 --> 00:47:38,760
Wherever he goes,
another crush point.

364
00:47:45,600 --> 00:47:49,080
The smallest are in the greatest
danger.

365
00:47:58,920 --> 00:48:03,320
While they struggle,
still more are joining from behind.

366
00:48:15,000 --> 00:48:18,080
Gnu must find a way out...

367
00:48:20,040 --> 00:48:22,480
..a way to save his life.

368
00:48:30,200 --> 00:48:33,040
Climb on their backs
and ride to freedom.

369
00:48:48,480 --> 00:48:52,920
Freed from the masses,
he finds a way through.

370
00:49:04,720 --> 00:49:08,800
But still no sign of his mother.

371
00:49:14,280 --> 00:49:16,600
He has a heartbeat to decide.

372
00:49:18,120 --> 00:49:22,200
Leave her or go back and find
her.

373
00:49:35,680 --> 00:49:39,640
For the cheetahs,
life is also becoming desperate.

374
00:49:43,320 --> 00:49:46,360
Aiysha still isn't hunting-ready.

375
00:49:50,400 --> 00:49:53,680
To survive, her cubs must provide.

376
00:50:04,560 --> 00:50:07,640
Duma must meet his moment.

377
00:50:19,360 --> 00:50:21,760
He's first to see the prey.

378
00:50:26,800 --> 00:50:30,240
A topi calf is well chosen.

379
00:50:32,160 --> 00:50:34,800
SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC

380
00:50:46,880 --> 00:50:48,720
CALF BLEATS, DUMA SNORTS

381
00:50:58,680 --> 00:51:00,440
He did it...

382
00:51:01,720 --> 00:51:04,160
..all on his own.

383
00:51:06,360 --> 00:51:08,640
HE PURRS

384
00:51:16,240 --> 00:51:19,240
If he can hunt,
they're not only safe...

385
00:51:22,000 --> 00:51:23,880
..so is their mother.

386
00:51:33,600 --> 00:51:38,480
PURRING

387
00:51:41,920 --> 00:51:44,800
It's a meal that's saved her life.

388
00:51:46,440 --> 00:51:49,600
It may not be much,
but more will follow.

389
00:51:50,880 --> 00:51:54,960
And the mother of this budding
hunter will soon recover.

390
00:52:01,280 --> 00:52:04,640
At the river crossing,
the herds have long moved on.

391
00:52:05,920 --> 00:52:09,200
One lone figure is still searching.

392
00:52:14,040 --> 00:52:17,720
Only those who didn't escape
the crush remain.

393
00:52:24,840 --> 00:52:27,120
BLEATING

394
00:52:30,440 --> 00:52:32,520
Does his mother lie among them?

395
00:52:35,920 --> 00:52:37,240
HE SNORTS

396
00:52:49,320 --> 00:52:51,600
There is no sign of life at all.

397
00:52:54,200 --> 00:52:55,880
HE BLEATS

398
00:53:01,760 --> 00:53:03,000
HE SNORTS

399
00:53:17,960 --> 00:53:20,640
THEY CALL

400
00:53:20,640 --> 00:53:23,120
But hope lives.
CALLING CONTINUES

401
00:53:36,920 --> 00:53:39,360
His mother was searching, too.

402
00:53:48,760 --> 00:53:51,360
MELODIC SINGING

403
00:54:07,000 --> 00:54:11,000
Together, they will continue their
journey...

404
00:54:11,000 --> 00:54:12,760
..as the herds have done

405
00:54:12,760 --> 00:54:14,480
since our land was born.

406
00:54:20,600 --> 00:54:25,480
As the multitudes leave, our land is
given back

407
00:54:25,480 --> 00:54:27,320
to those that remain.

408
00:54:28,520 --> 00:54:31,920
SOFT GUITAR MUSIC

409
00:54:38,040 --> 00:54:40,280
Bakari has taken his troop to the
one place

410
00:54:40,280 --> 00:54:43,120
he considers home...

411
00:54:43,120 --> 00:54:47,880
THEY CHITTER AND YAK

412
00:54:47,880 --> 00:54:49,640
..Baboon Rock.

413
00:54:50,840 --> 00:54:54,720
A safe haven from the dramas
on the plains below.

414
00:54:57,000 --> 00:54:59,520
He has reason to be content.

415
00:55:01,200 --> 00:55:04,440
His youngsters are safe and
secure...

416
00:55:04,440 --> 00:55:06,840
GENTLE VOCAL CHORUS

417
00:55:08,360 --> 00:55:11,560
..and harmony has been restored.

418
00:55:13,000 --> 00:55:15,800
THEY CHITTER AND BARK

419
00:55:18,480 --> 00:55:21,640
For now, they'll enjoy
the calm before the storm

420
00:55:21,640 --> 00:55:23,560
that will surely come.

421
00:55:30,880 --> 00:55:32,600
SQUAWKING

422
00:55:32,600 --> 00:55:36,560
Soon the seasons will change again
and new challenges will arrive.

423
00:55:39,400 --> 00:55:41,800
Our world is ever-changing.

424
00:55:51,800 --> 00:55:55,800
New life will be
born as others pass on.

425
00:56:02,360 --> 00:56:04,600
NEIGHING

426
00:56:04,600 --> 00:56:06,600
Already there are surprises
in store.

427
00:56:06,600 --> 00:56:08,840
KALI GROWLS

428
00:56:11,320 --> 00:56:15,560
Kali and her followers have finally
found their own safe home.

429
00:56:21,840 --> 00:56:23,440
THEY PURR

430
00:56:26,160 --> 00:56:29,880
Askari has been allowed to stay,
as their protector.

431
00:56:37,560 --> 00:56:39,400
And there's more.

432
00:56:40,560 --> 00:56:42,960
MEWLING

433
00:56:51,240 --> 00:56:54,960
Kali has had new
cubs - with the lion her pride

434
00:56:54,960 --> 00:56:56,480
once feared.

435
00:56:56,480 --> 00:57:01,760
MEWLING CONTINUES

436
00:57:07,960 --> 00:57:10,600
LION ROARS

437
00:57:10,600 --> 00:57:12,560
In our land,
where all life connects,

438
00:57:12,560 --> 00:57:17,520
there's no good or bad,
just families striving to succeed.

439
00:57:19,440 --> 00:57:21,800
As the world far away brings change,

440
00:57:21,800 --> 00:57:26,360
we will need all our resilience
to survive.

441
00:57:26,360 --> 00:57:30,560


442
00:57:30,560 --> 00:57:34,560


443
00:57:34,560 --> 00:57:39,080


444
00:57:39,080 --> 00:57:43,360


445
00:57:43,360 --> 00:57:47,960


446
00:57:47,960 --> 00:57:50,880
