Ben Fogle and Kate Humble present another episode from the exotic safari park set in Wiltshire’s luscious rolling hills. Today, love blossoms in the park but Cupid’s bow doesn’t always hit the right spot. A bromance between two young giraffe calves takes a dark turn when over-grooming leads to a life-threatening blood clot. The vets are forced to step in, but will little Shrimp the giraffe calf survive the anaesthetic?

Tragedy strikes Penguin Island as a mum and dad die in quick succession, leaving an orphaned chick behind. Keepers step in to care for the little one, but his bad luck hasn’t run out yet as he is forced to overcome a life-changing disability.

Over in Wolf Wood, rumours are flying that new couple Django and Aliska have mated. Jean Johansson pays them a visit to find out just what has been going on. Could a new generation of wolf pups be on the way?

Meanwhile, Kate sees first-hand how the keepers will stop at nothing to treat the animals they love so much as she joins keeper Caleb in cooling down the tigers with some refreshing homemade ice lollies! Show less
