If you're a fan of the nature docuseries that have become ubiquitous, this one will be right up your alley. "Wild Babies" is a sprawling documentary that follows animal babies around the world as they face the trials of life in their natural habitats. The footage looks astoundingly real and is even more heartwarming than what we're used to seeing from other shows like "Planet Earth" or "Our Planet."
The animals featured in the show are as cute as they come - from seal pups to baby penguins and pangolins, each have their own unique stories that will capture your attention. But that's not the only reason why this show is a winner - each episode is short and sweet at 30 minutes, so you can easily binge-watch it without losing track of time.
Each episode focuses on the adventures of a specific baby animal and follows them through their own struggles. From the helpless seal pup Tabo who learns to survive on his own in Namibia to the brash young lioness Minnie who takes control of her pride in Zambia, each story has its own twists and turns that will keep you entertained.
Narrated by Helena Bonham Carter, the episodes have a great flow to them that makes the experience enjoyable and easy to digest. This series humanizes the animals and gives them names and tracks their ups and downs, which keeps you glued to the screen. The awe-inspiring landscapes of the various locations make it an even more compelling watch.
