They are the biggest, meanest, and some say, deadliest animals in the world. Few approach them, few can face them, and few understand them.

The first months of a wild animal’s life are fraught with danger. Newborns require sufficient food, must often compete with their siblings for their parents’ care and attention and must learn quickly how to survive in nature. In addition, they frequently face external dangers from predators or environmental conditions. This film is a gripping and emotional investigation of the perils young animals face in the forests, meadows and lakes and along the coastlines of northern Europe.
