In a race against the clock, keepers and the vet battle to save the lives of a red deer and her unborn calf.

It’s a battle for life or death in the deer park where a red hind is in trouble. Ben Fogle and Kate Humble discover the deer has been in labour for a while and that her unborn calf is in a dangerous breach position. In a race against the clock, keepers and the vet do everything they can. But what are the chances of mum and calf surviving?

Exciting news in Wolf Wood: grey European alpha female Alisca is pregnant. Kate helps keepers put in a deluxe maternity box in the hope of capturing the birth of pups on camera, but there’s no guarantee Alisca wll use it. Kate and keeper Eloise investigate other areas where she might hole up and make the wood pup-proof. And there are tears of joy when the elusive newborns are finally spotted.

Jean Johansson finds out how fast a chameleon’s tongue can move to nobble its prey and helps Ringo, the vet-hating coati, recuperate from losing a toe with some special herbal treats.
