Season 1
Episodes
Episode 1
In episode one, Lucy is at a birth with more drama than she bargained for, and also witnesses the moment a rare baby rhino enters the world.
She starts her journey at the time of year when nature welcomes in millions of babies: spring, and her adventure begins high up in the hills of the Yorkshire Dales, where baby lambs are leaping into life.
Episode 2
It's the second episode, and while every year thousands of animals of all shapes and sizes are born in the UK, just like humans, not every animal will have a natural birth. So Lucy is getting some vet training and helping to deliver some puppies via C-Section.
She's come to meet Lopsie, a two-year-old French Bulldog, who's booked in for a Caesarean. Whilst their breeding may have led to a desirable looking dog, it's one that's difficult to deliver naturally because of its bigger head, meaning around 80% are actually born by C-section.
Episode 3
It's the third episode, Lucy heads to a farm in Leicestershire to help out with a somewhat tricky calving.There she meets farmer Martin Smith, who runs a herd of 170 dairy cows, and he's woken up to find a two-year-old first-time mum calving. 145 calves have already been born over the Summer, and Lucy is hoping to witness number 146 come into the world.
