Vets are called to provide urgent care to a pregnant wolf. Can their intervention offer a sign of hope?

Kate Humble and Ben Fogle are back for another sunny summer series, following the remarkable lives of the exotic animals at Longleat Safari Park and the keepers who care for their every need.

The keepers recently discovered that the mother of the wolf pack, Eliska, is pregnant. However, in today’s episode, their joy turns to fear. They’ve spotted some very strange behaviour. Eliska is lethargic and not interested in food. She is clearly in need of urgent care, so the vets are called, but if the worst happens, what will be the implications for the rest of the pack?

We’ve also been following a record-breaking baby in the park –the first Southern Koala joey born in Europe. We’ve been tracking her progress day and night as she’s grown before our eyes. Today, Kate and Ben meet her to find out what she’s eating, how fast she’s growing and if mum and daughter are bonding.

Megan McCubbin continues to discover how the team keep their animals entertained and in great condition – and as a former animal keeper herself – Megan needs no encouragement to get stuck in. Today, how will the lemurs react when they see their own reflection?
