Episode 14 – Wonderful Moms

When we study the behaviour of super moms in the wild, we ask ourselves the following question: should we speak of instinct or maternal love to describe them? This episode tries to answer this as the Benoit trio observes the hatching of ruffed grouse chicks, the reunion of a vixen with her kits and a black bear teaching her cubs how to cross a forest road.
