Twiga, an adorable young giraffe, has just been born. As he takes his first tentative steps, he tries to control his long gangly legs. He must learn quickly, Kali is on the prowl. Can his mother’s kicks protect him from the hungry lioness? Twiga seems to have a knack for getting into trouble so his mother must keep a careful eye on him, but when an adventure with a new friend leads to more danger, will either of them make it back to their families?

In the final episode of the series, the drought is creating desperation for the families of the Serengeti. With the lake little more than a barren desert the hippos are in trouble, trapped in a remaining mud pool with a dangerous hippo bull. Although the elephants dug wells to save themselves from the drought, even these are running dry. Bakari leads his baboon troop to the only remaining refuge he knows - a rock kopje. Here the cool air provides some relief from the searing heat, but what Bakari really needs is water. By accident, his baby finds what they are looking for, but it won’t last for long. Then, on the horizon distant lightning brings hope. As storm clouds gather, rain drenches the plains freeing the hippos from their muddy prison and giving the elephants somewhere to bathe. As the herds fill the plains, two tiny leopard cubs are playing together, oblivious to the world outside their den, but when their careless calls alert the baboon troop, Bakari decides to teach them a lesson. But the brave cubs stand their ground and suddenly the baboons are in trouble. Nearby, Twiga, an adorable young giraffe, has just been born. As he takes his first tentative steps, he tries to control his long gangly legs. He must learn quickly, Kali is on the prowl. Can his mother’s kicks protect him from the hungry lioness? Twiga seems to have a knack for getting into trouble so his mother must keep a careful eye on him, but when an adventure with a new friend leads to more danger, will either of them make it back to their families? Elsewhere, the cheetah coalition continues to take advantage of Duma’s spectacular hunting skills. They steal his wildebeest catch and later leave him to tackle a topi alone, but when he tries to take on an eland, the greatest antelope of all, he faces kicks that can kill. Will the coalition come to his rescue, or will they leave him to his fate? On the plains, Kadogo is no longer the youngest member of the elephant herd as another new baby enters their world. It’s a moment of reverence and celebration as everyone greets the new arrival. Then, in scenes never witnessed before, a majestic herd of Great Tuskers appear, seemingly from nowhere. Among them is the newborn’s father. In an awe-inspiring moment, the tuskers stand in silence as the new father greets his son, before vanishing into the savannah once more, leaving as mysteriously as they came. Mafuta and the hippo pod return to the river only to find Magamba and the other crocodiles have laid claim to the riverbank. In comical scenes, Mafuta’s mother decides to evict them and Mafuta does his best to help. But the peace they’ve created is soon broken when the rival bull returns. Mafuta is bigger now. Do they no longer need to flee? As Mafuta’s mother and the bull share a tender moment of reconciliation, can Mafuta put an end to his own rivalry with Magamba? As all our families try to find peace, distant calls grow ever louder until they build to a cacophony. It is the sound of flamingos returning to the lake. Duma, Utani, Zalika, Kali and Bakari gather as the lake is filled with life once more. The flamingos begin their celebratory courtship dance as the land returns to a place of abundance and opportunity. From the hardest times come the richest times and so the cycle goes on and, in an ever-changing world, the story of the Serengeti continues.

theyre literally perfect, adds the lost sound from the impact do to the far camera distance, and is also entertaining this isnt a text book grandpa

I think it’s fine just some of the ones they used for the headbutts stood out too much. Like they picked ones more suited for a comic book punch rather than a soft padded headbutt
