Parenthood - Everything you need to know about the wildlife series from filming locations to featured species and more Sir David Attenborough returns to narrate amazing stories of dedication, ingenuity and sacrifice, as animal parents embark on the greatest challenge of all - raising their young

Huge thanks to everyone involved for capturing incredible footage and sharing these stories🎉
