Episode 4
Ben and Kate see how koalas get ready to mate, the keepers finally outwit the park's secretive spotted hyenas, and Jean joins rescue training on the lake.
The park's keepers have high hopes for their southern koala breeding programme as new boy Burke is showing signs of wanting to mate. Bellowing and spraying his scent everywhere is the rather unsubtle way he tries to attract the female koalas.
Kate witnesses an Animal Park first as the secretive spotted hyenas are captured on camera. She takes part in a covert operation to outwit these wily creatures in order to have their enclosure managed.
Ben looks back at the colourful life of Lord Bath, who oversaw the estate for over a quarter of a century. A huge figure at the heart of the park, under his watch new species arrived and endangered species breeding programmes flourishes.
Meanwhile, Jean Johansson tries not to fall into the lake as she takes part in training to save a man overboard.
