The Secret Life of the Zoo
Season 2 Episode 5 of 6
Four Sumatran orang-utans escape from their quarters, and tempting them back inside proves easier said than done, while the dominant female meerkat faces trouble from her daughter, who is launching physical attacks upon her mother. A young Asian elephant keeps the rest of the herd entertained as they adapt to the loss of two members to a virus. The keepers believe it needs a playmate its own age, but their hopes rest on the bull elephant mating with the females once more
The Secret Life of the Zoo airs on More4 at 5:50 PM, Friday 26 April. (Subtitles, audio description.)
