How different are we from our animal cousins? Cutting-edge spy cameras generate intimate footage and reveal the uncanny connection between animals and humans. Each episode is themed around a seemingly human trait also found in the wild: love, intelligence, friendship and mischief. Meet the elephants acting as midwives, the courting bowerbirds, and the hippos having pedicures, in a series of revelatory encounters. Full of funny and unexpected moments, this release also contains Meet the Spies, the companion piece to Spy in the Wild, showing the extraordinary effort that goes into making this wonderful, intriguing documentary
