First Steps
Preschool series. Andy Day looks at the tricky first steps of baby animals such as polar bears, elephants and Mandarin ducklings.
Children's favourite Andy Day looks at baby animals' tricky first steps. Polar bear cubs slip on the arctic snow. In Africa, a baby elephant needs mum's help to stand up. Mandarin ducklings face a huge leap from their tree trunk nest in Russia.
Growing up wild is a lot of fun. Baby animals must master many of the same skills as us like how to climb, swim and get around. This enchanting series draws on the best of the BBC Natural History Unit to showcase the world's cutest animal babies.
