Biomimicry is the science of borrowing nature’s evolutionary adaptations and applying them to the human world. Natural blood thinners from bat saliva, anaesthetic from mosquitos, antibiotics in bee honeycomb, and cryogenic secrets from the blood of amphibians – there’s a new world to discover, if you know how to look.

‘Born In The Wild’ explores the reproductive behaviours and biology of the animal kingdom. Focusing on the elephant, dolphin, kangaroo and orangutan, we take a look at how these animals find, fight for and woo the opposite sex. We explore how they mate, give birth and raise their young in extreme environments. Why do male elephants transform into sex crazed monsters during musth? How do orangutans give birth safely high in the trees? Why is the pregnancy of kangaroos so short? And how do dolphins mate at high speed?

This film will follow the spoonbills’ journey and the dedicated scientists who, despite geopolitical divides, share one common goal: the conservation and protection of this symbolic bird.
