Look: Animals and Their Young: 1: Becoming a Parent

BBC Television
on BBC Television

Written and produced by Eileen Molony.
Introduced by Peter Scott.
Reproduction and parental care take wonderfully varied forms. The mud dauber wasp never sees her young but, acting by instinct only, seals up a living caterpillar for her grub to feed on. The higher mammals respond to their young in complicated ways and care for them for weeks and even for years.
The programme deals with three stages of parental care-preparation for birth, birth, and feeding the young.
