With Mother’s Day coming up in the U.S., what better way to celebrate than by spotlighting some of nature’s most devoted moms?
This fun, feel‑good 8‑video BBC playlist dives into the incredible bond between animal moms and their babies — and the wild ways they raise them. Watch puma cubs practice their hunting skills, a baby orangutan learn the ropes high in the treetops, humpback whale calves set off on their first epic journeys, and prairie dog pups turn playtime into survival training.
From feeding and protection to movement and life lessons, these clips show just how much it takes to grow up in the wild — and how moms make it all possible.
Featuring favorites like prairie dogs, orangutans, polar bears, and humpback whales, this playlist pulls from iconic BBC series like Animal Babies and Planet Earth.

Each episode celebrates the joy of having a pet while teaching kids how to care for animals with kindness, patience, and curiosity. Whether you're learning how to groom a pony or discovering how a station cat spends her day, this collection highlights the many ways pets enrich our lives and how we can return the favor.
Ever wondered how guide dogs get their start? It begins with caring volunteers who give special “super-mom” dogs a loving home while they raise future guide dog puppies!

By 8 weeks old, they’re ready to begin training to become life-changing companions for people who need them.
Taking care of these dogs is fun, meaningful, and full of puppy snuggles. Would you want to be part of something this amazing?
The article "Why Dogs Eat Grass (and Sometimes Poop): Strange but True!" from BBC's Science Focus explores the curious reasons behind dogs eating grass and poop.

In The Secrets of a Police Dog’s Training, host Ferne Corrigan meets Scooby, the amazing springer spaniel police dog with a nose that's better than any human!
