If I were an animal, I'd wanna be a fawn.

And you'd be born at the heart of the forest.

I'm gonna call him... Spots.

Look, Emma, he's got a friend.

This is his very first day in the world.

Aww.

Look, Spots is learning how to walk.

Whoops.

Tim, is that his daddy?

Yup, he's the King of the Forest.

He's making sure Spots is okay.

Aw, and there's his mommy.

Spots is just like me when I was a baby.

First, some milk, and then a bath, and then a night-night.

There, no one can see him. That's called camouflage.

Look, Spots' mom is showing him around so he doesn't ever get lost.

Is Spots in school now?

Yup, his mom's teaching him all the secret tracks.

Time for another lesson with Mom.

Things You Can Eat.

Hmm, no, thanks, I'm full.

Spots has to be careful not to eat the bad plants.

But how can he tell which ones are bad?

He just needs to watch his mom.

And see? He likes it.

Wow, is that Spots?

It is. He's really big now, isn't he?

Look, there's another one.

I'm gonna call him Brownie.

Oh, yay, Spots and Brownie are friends.

Looks like Brownie wants to go for a race.

Spots does too. But first, bathroom break.

"You like my new hairstyle?"

is it time for Spots to become the King of the Forest?

Hmm, almost.

It's time to see who's the strongest.

I want it to be Spots.

Look how beautiful he is.

You can do it!

Yes! Spots won.

And we have our new champion. Yes!

If I were an animal, I'd wanna be a lynx.

They're a super rare feline.

Aw, look, they're so cute.

I'm gonna call 'em... Lily and Bob.

Look, Bob's ready to explore.

And Lily's the best at cuddles.

Aww.

Do you see that, Emma? He's found something.

I wonder what it is.

But he doesn't like to stay away from his family for too long.

Look out, Bob, Lily knows karate.

Whoa, Lily and Bob have changed a lot in just a month.

But they're still little.

What do you have there, Bob? Is that your blankie?

It's a really furry blankie.

He's playing hide and seek.

When he's older, he's gonna have to hide food and find it later.

Uh-oh, are they angry?

No, they're just playing. That's how they get their hunting skills.

Phew, all that training made them tired.

Hmm, why is her mom taking Lily away?

'Cause it's time for food.

Look, her ears are like my paintbrushes.

That's how we can tell she's lynx.

But I don't think she can paint with those.

- Is that Lily and Bob? - Yup.

Six months later,

they're still training to the defend themselves in the wild.

It must be fun to learn by playing all the time.

They're getting really good at this game.

Yeah, they've gotta practice sneaking up on other forest creature.

Well, I'm on Lily's team.

Then I'll be on Bob's team.

It's his turn to hide.

Ready or not, here we come.

Found you.

Come on, Bob, they're winning.

One, two, three...

- You're ready? - ...four, five, six.

Lynx are really good climbers.

But Bob must have forgotten that part or else he'd look up.

If she didn't climb down, her brother would never find her.

Ugh, she won again.

Nice one, Lily.

If I were a lynx, I'd play hide and seek all the time.

Is Bob going for a swim?

I don't think so, Emma.

Anyway, he doesn't look like he's in the mood.

It looks like he wants a snow cone.

That's how he gets his water in the winter.

Lily and her mom must be in their den keeping warm.

Actually, Lynx love the cold.

They have giant paws that stop them from sinking in the snow.

Bob's bored without his sister just like you when I'm not there.

- Right, Tim?

Go on, go find Lily. Bye-bye, Bob.

If I were an animal, I'd wanna be a wildebeest.

Aww, a baby.

I'll call little-miss- hooves-in-the-air, Whitney.

Look, Tim, she's already trying to stand.

That's right.

And her mother is walking ahead to show her how it's done.

Whoa, she was just born and she's almost running.

Good job, Whitney.

Uh-oh.

Where did Whitney go?

She isn't scared of anything.

Watch out, that's not your mother, Whitney.

Whoa.

Aww, that's so cute.

But won't mama worry?

Tim, do wildebeest babies and lions usually snuggle?

No, normally wildebeest are afraid of them.

The lioness must be a momma too.

I think she has a soft spot for Whitney.

No, Whitney, if you're hungry

you're gonna have to go find your own mother.

Her mama's scared to come closer.

That's true, but look, the lioness is trying to make Whitney understand

she needs to go back to her mother.

Aww.

Do you think her mama is mad?

She was worried but the lioness took good care of her baby.

Do you think they know each other?

No, but this jackal sure seems friendly.

"Hey, you wanna play, Whitney? Come on."

"Hmm, I dont know."

"Let's go."

"Oh, okay."

Huh?

Whitney didn't really understand the game.

Maybe when she's a bit older.

Whitney, you've had so many adventures.

And it's just your first day.

Hey, look who's jumping around, it's our silly friend Whitney.

That's what wildebeest do when they're in a good mood.

Their nickname is "Clowns of the Planes."

That make sense.

Oh, hello, little miss lioness.

Where is everybody going?

Well, once a year,

all the wildebeest meet up with the zebras and gazelles

and they leave on a big journey.

It's the Great Seasonal Migration.

if I were a wildebeest,

I'd love going on road trips with all my friends.

Whoa, first one to the other side wins.

I think Whitney's a little spooked by the water.

There's a strong current so it's hard to get across.

Yeah, Whitney, you can do it you're almost there.

Whoops.

Good job, Whitney. Have a great trip.

See you later.

If I were an animal, I'd wanna be a European badger.

Then you'd live in a cozy burrow in the forest.

Aww, his markings make him look so handsome.

Where is he going in such a hurry, Tim?

I think he's going to visit someone.

Oh, look another badger.

Maybe that's his girlfriend.

She is. She's guarding the den while he's away.

Ah, finally.

I'm gonna call her Betsy.

Tim, why is she digging?

Badgers are burrowing animals.

"Burrowers."

That means they're experts when it comes to making holes and tunnels.

But right now, Betsy's looking for a snack.

Dig in.

Betsy's had babies.

They have such soft fur.

Yeah, badgers are born with soft fur to keep them warm.

And they don't open their eyes till they are month old.

Oh, look at this cutie, I'll call him Blaze.

His paws look like little hands.

More like mini shovels. Those paws are perfect for digging.

- She sure is itchy. - Sure is.

In the wild, badgers have to scratch and wash away fleas and other bugs.

That's hard work.

Huh? I think Blaze wants to leave.

He's two months old now,

which means it's time for him to practice his scratching and digging.

If I were a badger, I'd scratch and dig all day.

"Come on, kids, I've lots more to show you."

Wow, Blaze is all grown up.

What is he doing?

He's looking for something to eat.

♪ Scratch and dig ♪ ♪ And scratch and dig ♪

Huh?

What are you doing, Mr. Fox?

Do you wanna come over to Blaze's house?

Actually, European badgers

sometimes share their burrows with other animals, like foxes.

But this fox is so clingy.

Good hiding spot, Blaze.

It's okay, he shook him off.

Ah, he's back home with his brothers and sisters.

They're so silly.

This kind of badger lives with their family their whole life.

That way, they can play forever.

I think Blaze has had enough for today.

He's ready for a comfy nap in his house.
