Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:09,635 --> 00:00:14,348
The birth of a baby animal
is always special.
2
00:00:16,808 --> 00:00:19,478
But for those on the brink of extinction,
3
00:00:20,437 --> 00:00:21,813
every new life…
4
00:00:23,398 --> 00:00:24,399
brings hope.
5
00:00:26,109 --> 00:00:28,445
Six endangered youngsters
6
00:00:29,279 --> 00:00:31,240
raised in our world
7
00:00:32,783 --> 00:00:36,078
are on the journey of a lifetime…
8
00:00:36,620 --> 00:00:37,523
Follow me.
9
00:00:37,538 --> 00:00:38,914
…back to theirs.
10
00:00:39,706 --> 00:00:41,959
Are you inquisitive? Yeah.
11
00:00:42,501 --> 00:00:44,545
But they can't do it on their own.
12
00:00:44,962 --> 00:00:46,213
He lost his mother.
13
00:00:48,882 --> 00:00:52,719
With human foster parents
helping them on their way…
14
00:00:53,762 --> 00:00:56,306
You don't need to be scared,
I'm here with you.
15
00:00:56,932 --> 00:01:01,395
…can these little ones
help save their species…
16
00:01:01,478 --> 00:01:04,188
If you love something,
you have to let it go.
17
00:01:05,107 --> 00:01:09,027
…and return to the wild?
18
00:01:23,333 --> 00:01:26,211
In the jungles of Northeast India…
19
00:01:30,257 --> 00:01:36,138
wildlife vet Dr. Panjit Basumatary
is racing to save a life.
20
00:01:36,805 --> 00:01:38,807
We just rescued a bear cub.
21
00:01:39,808 --> 00:01:42,519
Now, we are rushing to take care of him.
22
00:01:42,978 --> 00:01:46,607
The three-month-old
baby bear, named Sagalee,
23
00:01:47,149 --> 00:01:49,318
was found abandoned in the forest.
24
00:01:50,611 --> 00:01:53,989
I suspect the mother
has been killed by illegal hunters.
25
00:01:55,407 --> 00:01:57,117
He's very scared.
26
00:01:58,619 --> 00:02:03,332
The orphan hasn't fed for days
and is now very weak.
27
00:02:04,416 --> 00:02:06,210
I'm really worried.
28
00:02:06,293 --> 00:02:09,545
I hope he can survive.
29
00:02:11,548 --> 00:02:16,512
Sagalee is one
of just 6,000 moon bears left in India.
30
00:02:19,431 --> 00:02:21,391
Illegal hunting across Asia
31
00:02:21,475 --> 00:02:24,770
is one of the main reasons
they're at risk of extinction.
32
00:02:25,771 --> 00:02:28,357
So, every cub counts.
33
00:02:36,114 --> 00:02:40,410
After five hours,
they make it to a special rescue center.
34
00:02:43,497 --> 00:02:46,959
The only one in India
that takes in orphaned bears
35
00:02:47,042 --> 00:02:50,295
and tries to return them to the wild.
36
00:02:57,177 --> 00:02:59,054
Come on, come on.
37
00:03:01,139 --> 00:03:06,228
But unless Sagalee feeds soon,
he won't live more than a few days.
38
00:03:06,728 --> 00:03:07,938
Sagalee…
39
00:03:09,648 --> 00:03:11,650
You don't need to be scared.
40
00:03:13,110 --> 00:03:14,862
Come on, son. Come on.
41
00:03:18,156 --> 00:03:20,158
To take milk from the bottle,
42
00:03:20,242 --> 00:03:24,121
Panjit must first coax
the frightened little cub out.
43
00:03:24,204 --> 00:03:26,373
Yes. Come, come, come.
44
00:03:29,126 --> 00:03:30,377
Come, come, come.
45
00:03:33,422 --> 00:03:34,840
Come, come, come.
46
00:03:42,556 --> 00:03:43,556
Come, come, come.
47
00:03:52,191 --> 00:03:53,483
Come, come, come.
48
00:04:03,744 --> 00:04:05,370
I'm here with you.
49
00:04:06,079 --> 00:04:07,080
Come on.
50
00:04:08,415 --> 00:04:09,958
Come on, Sagalee.
51
00:04:12,002 --> 00:04:14,505
Panjit has a trick up his sleeve.
52
00:04:15,672 --> 00:04:17,673
Do you have the honey?
53
00:04:19,051 --> 00:04:20,719
Put a little over the top.
54
00:04:20,802 --> 00:04:23,889
Because there's one thing
no bear can resist.
55
00:04:31,188 --> 00:04:32,439
Come on.
56
00:04:33,649 --> 00:04:35,692
I'll give you honey.
57
00:04:35,776 --> 00:04:37,069
Come on.
58
00:04:37,528 --> 00:04:39,238
Come on, come on, come on.
59
00:04:40,405 --> 00:04:42,407
Come on, come on, come on.
60
00:04:44,243 --> 00:04:45,577
Yes.
61
00:04:46,411 --> 00:04:47,412
Yes.
62
00:04:58,882 --> 00:05:01,301
His first taste of honey.
63
00:05:01,385 --> 00:05:02,427
Good boy.
64
00:05:03,262 --> 00:05:04,346
First time ever.
65
00:05:06,598 --> 00:05:09,017
But it's milk the cub really needs.
66
00:05:15,274 --> 00:05:16,358
Yes.
67
00:05:17,359 --> 00:05:18,527
Yes.
68
00:05:18,610 --> 00:05:23,073
It's a small step on a long journey.
69
00:05:23,782 --> 00:05:24,783
Good boy.
70
00:05:30,581 --> 00:05:32,374
For the next six months,
71
00:05:32,457 --> 00:05:36,295
Panjit will dedicate his life
to this little bear,
72
00:05:40,090 --> 00:05:41,717
hand-raising him…
73
00:05:42,134 --> 00:05:43,134
Good boy.
74
00:05:44,303 --> 00:05:45,387
You like it?
75
00:05:45,470 --> 00:05:48,307
…and, hopefully,
return him to the jungle.
76
00:05:48,849 --> 00:05:49,849
Yes.
77
00:06:05,741 --> 00:06:07,910
Now that Sagalee is feeding,
78
00:06:07,993 --> 00:06:10,913
there's a bigger worry
about the young cub's health.
79
00:06:13,373 --> 00:06:15,542
There were two bears you see.
80
00:06:15,626 --> 00:06:18,086
Sagalee and his brother.
81
00:06:19,630 --> 00:06:22,341
No one knows
what happened to their mother.
82
00:06:23,175 --> 00:06:25,469
The people who found the cubs
83
00:06:25,552 --> 00:06:27,471
had them tied up.
84
00:06:31,058 --> 00:06:33,018
They didn't know
85
00:06:33,101 --> 00:06:35,938
how to take care of them.
86
00:06:37,314 --> 00:06:39,900
Sagalee's brother was in a bad way.
87
00:06:42,027 --> 00:06:46,865
Panjit treated him immediately,
but it was just too late.
88
00:06:51,161 --> 00:06:56,250
Unfortunately, within 24 hours he died.
89
00:06:58,252 --> 00:07:00,087
His brother died.
90
00:07:00,170 --> 00:07:02,673
But what are the chances he will survive?
91
00:07:03,632 --> 00:07:05,801
For now, it's 50/50.
92
00:07:18,981 --> 00:07:22,359
He fears the brother died
from a contagious disease.
93
00:07:22,860 --> 00:07:25,863
I have to sedate Sagalee
to run some tests.
94
00:07:28,740 --> 00:07:31,994
If it's spread, Sagalee's in danger.
95
00:07:33,370 --> 00:07:35,080
I'm going to collect blood.
96
00:07:36,665 --> 00:07:39,835
Symptoms can take weeks to show.
97
00:07:40,586 --> 00:07:43,881
Until we get the results back,
I'll be very worried.
98
00:07:54,391 --> 00:07:55,976
A week later…
99
00:07:58,020 --> 00:08:00,772
Sagalee still seems healthy.
100
00:08:02,941 --> 00:08:06,653
The moon-shaped marking on his chest
is starting to show.
101
00:08:08,113 --> 00:08:10,699
It's how moon bears get their name.
102
00:08:13,952 --> 00:08:16,705
And his first milk teeth
are coming through.
103
00:08:18,540 --> 00:08:23,545
In the wild, cubs follow
their mums everywhere for two years,
104
00:08:23,629 --> 00:08:25,547
learning how to survive.
105
00:08:27,716 --> 00:08:31,929
Panjit must form
the same close bond with Sagalee.
106
00:08:36,975 --> 00:08:39,727
Let's walk together, okay?
107
00:08:39,811 --> 00:08:43,815
The cub's much too young
to survive on his own.
108
00:08:43,899 --> 00:08:47,653
So, as any parent with a toddler knows,
109
00:08:47,736 --> 00:08:50,364
you can't let them out of your sight.
110
00:08:55,285 --> 00:08:56,828
Catch him, catch him, catch him!
111
00:09:22,855 --> 00:09:25,023
Catch him, catch him, catch him.
112
00:09:32,489 --> 00:09:34,825
Sagalee, you are not ready to go out.
113
00:09:34,908 --> 00:09:37,703
You are not going to follow us.
114
00:09:38,996 --> 00:09:43,041
If this headstrong cub
were to disappear into the jungle,
115
00:09:44,084 --> 00:09:46,295
he'd only survive a few days.
116
00:09:49,214 --> 00:09:50,382
Sagalee.
117
00:09:50,465 --> 00:09:52,009
Don't climb. Don't climb.
118
00:09:57,764 --> 00:09:59,057
He's trying to escape.
119
00:09:59,892 --> 00:10:01,185
Come on.
120
00:10:07,524 --> 00:10:09,610
He's still remembering his mum.
121
00:10:10,569 --> 00:10:13,947
That is why he's trying to escape from us.
122
00:10:17,409 --> 00:10:18,952
You don't need to go away.
123
00:10:19,953 --> 00:10:21,705
Come on.
124
00:10:26,376 --> 00:10:28,378
He doesn't trust us.
125
00:10:29,671 --> 00:10:32,674
Gaining the trust
of this troubled young bear…
126
00:10:32,758 --> 00:10:34,051
Good boy. You are a very good boy.
127
00:10:36,261 --> 00:10:37,971
…could take months.
128
00:10:39,515 --> 00:10:41,892
I'm very worried about this guy.
129
00:10:44,186 --> 00:10:46,563
With 15 years of experience,
130
00:10:46,647 --> 00:10:50,317
Panjit knows how to calm a frightened cub.
131
00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:52,402
Go to sleep.
132
00:11:05,374 --> 00:11:07,376
Asleep at last.
133
00:11:08,293 --> 00:11:10,212
Have a good sleep.
134
00:11:14,299 --> 00:11:19,888
But Panjit won't rest easy
until he gets the test results.
135
00:11:20,806 --> 00:11:23,976
Hi, good evening. It's Dr. Panjit.
136
00:11:24,893 --> 00:11:27,604
I'm calling to check up on the progress
137
00:11:27,688 --> 00:11:30,858
of Sagalee's blood test.
138
00:11:31,483 --> 00:11:33,944
Yes, we have the results here.
139
00:11:35,237 --> 00:11:37,906
Good news, the results are negative.
140
00:11:38,448 --> 00:11:40,868
That's wonderful news.
141
00:11:41,451 --> 00:11:44,204
Everything looks healthy.
142
00:11:44,746 --> 00:11:47,916
That's brilliant. Thanks.
143
00:11:48,959 --> 00:11:50,127
Goodbye.
144
00:11:57,217 --> 00:11:59,261
Quick drink?
145
00:12:12,232 --> 00:12:14,067
With a clean bill of health,
146
00:12:14,651 --> 00:12:18,238
the priority now
is to build Sagalee's strength.
147
00:12:20,741 --> 00:12:24,953
Bear cubs usually feed on their mum's milk
for the first six months.
148
00:12:25,787 --> 00:12:28,665
Since his mother is not around,
149
00:12:28,749 --> 00:12:31,585
we are like the mother,
we have to provide milk.
150
00:12:32,544 --> 00:12:34,004
Formula for puppies
151
00:12:34,087 --> 00:12:36,965
is one of the closest things
to bear's milk.
152
00:12:38,550 --> 00:12:41,637
We are feeding Sagalee
seven to eight times in a day.
153
00:12:42,846 --> 00:12:45,516
You like it?
154
00:12:46,934 --> 00:12:48,268
It's a lot of work,
155
00:12:48,352 --> 00:12:51,688
but I can see he is growing well.
156
00:13:01,281 --> 00:13:05,619
Single parenting a bear cub
is a full-time job.
157
00:13:08,580 --> 00:13:11,583
That means
Panjit rarely gets to see his wife
158
00:13:11,667 --> 00:13:16,004
and 10-year-old daughter,
who live five hours away.
159
00:13:16,088 --> 00:13:17,840
What's on the menu?
160
00:13:17,923 --> 00:13:19,758
Dhal and sweet potatoes.
161
00:13:19,842 --> 00:13:21,218
Habu is the best cook.
162
00:13:23,220 --> 00:13:24,555
When he's here,
163
00:13:24,638 --> 00:13:27,432
the team are like Panjit's
extended family.
164
00:13:29,726 --> 00:13:32,521
Including Habu, his right-hand man.
165
00:13:32,604 --> 00:13:34,356
Chop, chop, chop.
166
00:13:34,439 --> 00:13:36,525
This knife is a bit dangerous.
167
00:13:38,527 --> 00:13:40,779
Their hard work is paying off.
168
00:13:42,155 --> 00:13:45,576
Three-quarters of the rescued bears
are eventually released.
169
00:13:49,329 --> 00:13:51,748
Looks very healthy.
170
00:13:51,832 --> 00:13:53,292
He likes fruits.
171
00:13:53,375 --> 00:13:55,502
But it doesn't always work.
172
00:13:56,003 --> 00:13:58,213
These are the captive bears
173
00:13:58,297 --> 00:14:00,382
and very sadly,
174
00:14:00,465 --> 00:14:02,885
after release,
they didn't accept the forest.
175
00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:07,681
Some bears just can't learn
how to survive on their own.
176
00:14:07,764 --> 00:14:09,766
So are never returned to the wild.
177
00:14:10,601 --> 00:14:13,353
We give them the best life we can.
178
00:14:13,437 --> 00:14:16,356
But we hope Sagalee doesn't end up here.
179
00:14:21,528 --> 00:14:25,532
Over the coming weeks,
Panjit puts all his efforts…
180
00:14:25,616 --> 00:14:26,992
Let's go and play.
181
00:14:27,409 --> 00:14:30,871
…into trying to win the little bear over.
182
00:14:30,954 --> 00:14:32,956
You're my friend, don't run.
183
00:14:36,835 --> 00:14:40,631
Sagalee, you don't need to be scared.
184
00:14:41,131 --> 00:14:44,134
We want to teach you, right?
185
00:14:47,304 --> 00:14:49,348
Checking on him through the night.
186
00:14:51,058 --> 00:14:53,185
I am here with you.
187
00:15:00,651 --> 00:15:02,069
You're hungry today.
188
00:15:04,530 --> 00:15:05,697
Good job.
189
00:15:05,781 --> 00:15:08,742
And tempting him with sugary treats.
190
00:15:09,910 --> 00:15:11,662
You like honey!
191
00:15:17,459 --> 00:15:18,585
No, no, no.
192
00:15:19,711 --> 00:15:20,711
No.
193
00:15:22,714 --> 00:15:25,551
I wasn't sure you'd like this.
194
00:15:26,593 --> 00:15:28,971
You can have this every day now.
195
00:15:30,597 --> 00:15:34,560
Slowly, the trust between them
starts to grow.
196
00:15:37,020 --> 00:15:38,856
Yes, that's it.
197
00:15:39,940 --> 00:15:42,025
Show me you can use your nails.
198
00:15:42,109 --> 00:15:44,987
Yes. Very smart boy.
199
00:15:45,070 --> 00:15:49,283
Until after more than
a hundred hours of one-to-one care…
200
00:15:50,742 --> 00:15:51,994
Sagalee, follow me.
201
00:15:53,287 --> 00:15:55,414
Sagalee follows Panjit…
202
00:15:55,497 --> 00:15:59,751
Come on. Yes, come on,
come on, come on. Follow me.
203
00:15:59,835 --> 00:16:01,753
…everywhere he goes.
204
00:16:30,365 --> 00:16:31,491
Three months on,
205
00:16:32,868 --> 00:16:36,705
and Sagalee's grown to nearly 30 pounds.
206
00:16:38,832 --> 00:16:41,877
Four times what he weighed
when he was rescued.
207
00:16:47,966 --> 00:16:48,911
Sagalee…
208
00:16:48,926 --> 00:16:52,930
And he's starting
to show an inquisitive streak.
209
00:16:58,060 --> 00:16:59,645
Come, come, come.
210
00:17:01,563 --> 00:17:03,148
Come, come, come.
211
00:17:05,025 --> 00:17:08,069
Now that he follows Panjit
outside the enclosure…
212
00:17:09,863 --> 00:17:12,074
jungle school can begin.
213
00:17:14,034 --> 00:17:17,954
First lesson: Self-defense.
214
00:17:20,332 --> 00:17:24,752
Moon bears spend more time
on their hind legs than any other bears.
215
00:17:27,548 --> 00:17:29,675
It's how they defend themselves.
216
00:17:32,469 --> 00:17:34,805
The jungle is a very dangerous place.
217
00:17:35,931 --> 00:17:37,850
So Sagalee has to learn
218
00:17:37,933 --> 00:17:40,477
how to protect himself inside the forest.
219
00:17:43,021 --> 00:17:44,898
He's not scary yet.
220
00:17:49,152 --> 00:17:51,989
But he's more confident.
221
00:17:54,408 --> 00:17:56,201
For now, it's playful.
222
00:17:56,660 --> 00:17:59,288
But when he's a 400-pound adult,
223
00:17:59,371 --> 00:18:02,666
he'll be able to deliver a hefty blow.
224
00:18:10,841 --> 00:18:13,677
Next lesson: Climbing.
225
00:18:15,387 --> 00:18:18,265
It's something bears do instinctively.
226
00:18:18,348 --> 00:18:19,433
But…
227
00:18:20,809 --> 00:18:22,811
it takes practice.
228
00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:25,230
When he goes inside the forest,
229
00:18:25,314 --> 00:18:27,941
he has to know how to escape
from the predators.
230
00:18:28,692 --> 00:18:31,570
That is why he is climbing the tree.
231
00:18:31,653 --> 00:18:35,157
Moon bears spend
half their lives up in the branches.
232
00:18:35,824 --> 00:18:37,242
Very smart.
233
00:18:37,326 --> 00:18:41,079
And when he's older,
Sagalee will even build nests
234
00:18:41,163 --> 00:18:43,040
to sleep in safely.
235
00:18:44,249 --> 00:18:45,792
Once he's got the hang of it.
236
00:18:49,838 --> 00:18:54,092
The bonding between
me and Sagalee is now very strong.
237
00:18:55,928 --> 00:18:58,096
He accepts me.
238
00:18:58,555 --> 00:19:01,767
And with that bond tighter than ever,
239
00:19:01,850 --> 00:19:06,772
the little cub's ready for the next step
on his extraordinary journey.
240
00:19:24,289 --> 00:19:27,417
He'll be heading to Pakke Tiger Reserve.
241
00:19:28,168 --> 00:19:32,089
Here, India's government
has created a safe haven
242
00:19:33,215 --> 00:19:36,510
where forestry rangers
protect animals from poaching.
243
00:19:40,180 --> 00:19:44,726
But for a young cub,
the jungle is still full of dangers.
244
00:19:46,979 --> 00:19:49,356
Aggressive adult moon bears,
245
00:19:50,691 --> 00:19:52,401
and even tigers.
246
00:19:57,406 --> 00:20:01,451
Only when Sagalee can escape
these threats and find food
247
00:20:01,994 --> 00:20:04,746
will Panjit leave him on his own.
248
00:20:17,134 --> 00:20:19,261
It's the morning of the move.
249
00:20:22,931 --> 00:20:26,018
Panjit's happy Sagalee's a healthy weight.
250
00:20:27,102 --> 00:20:29,563
And with the help
of the forestry department…
251
00:20:34,443 --> 00:20:36,028
they're on their way.
252
00:20:40,699 --> 00:20:42,826
It's a full day's journey ahead.
253
00:20:48,540 --> 00:20:53,837
With temperatures over 90 degrees,
the little bear could easily overheat.
254
00:20:55,923 --> 00:20:59,259
It's very hot today.
You need to cool down.
255
00:21:07,267 --> 00:21:09,853
The truck can only get so far.
256
00:21:11,188 --> 00:21:13,482
Then it's a two-hour trek.
257
00:21:17,444 --> 00:21:20,614
Carrying the 60-pound bear crate.
258
00:21:22,574 --> 00:21:23,659
Don't worry.
259
00:21:23,742 --> 00:21:24,952
Come. Come.
260
00:21:26,286 --> 00:21:27,412
Very close now.
261
00:21:30,707 --> 00:21:32,376
Don't worry.
262
00:21:34,127 --> 00:21:35,295
Good boy.
263
00:21:36,171 --> 00:21:38,340
You're enjoying the water.
264
00:21:38,423 --> 00:21:40,342
You'll get a lot of water.
265
00:21:40,425 --> 00:21:41,760
So many streams.
266
00:21:54,273 --> 00:21:58,652
Finally, they make it
to Sagalee's new home.
267
00:22:02,447 --> 00:22:06,201
A treehouse
specially built by Panjit's team.
268
00:22:07,202 --> 00:22:10,080
Where he'll spend his nights in safety.
269
00:22:18,297 --> 00:22:21,633
Panjit will also be living
above the forest floor
270
00:22:22,301 --> 00:22:23,844
away from danger.
271
00:22:25,512 --> 00:22:27,306
Have there been any elephants?
272
00:22:27,389 --> 00:22:28,807
Yes, last night.
273
00:22:28,891 --> 00:22:31,143
Oh, which direction?
274
00:22:31,226 --> 00:22:32,477
Over there.
275
00:22:32,561 --> 00:22:34,396
It's dangerous here because
276
00:22:34,479 --> 00:22:37,608
elephant is roaming nearby this treehouse.
277
00:22:37,691 --> 00:22:39,943
We don't have any phone connection here.
278
00:22:40,027 --> 00:22:42,029
So we have to be very, very cautious.
279
00:22:43,155 --> 00:22:44,573
If anything goes wrong,
280
00:22:44,656 --> 00:22:47,784
the team are a day's journey
from the nearest hospital.
281
00:22:48,535 --> 00:22:50,204
Tea, tea, tea.
282
00:22:50,287 --> 00:22:52,581
The treehouse may be basic…
283
00:22:52,664 --> 00:22:54,082
- Ajit?
- Yes?
284
00:22:54,166 --> 00:22:55,459
Are you making tea?
285
00:22:55,542 --> 00:22:56,668
Making it.
286
00:22:56,752 --> 00:22:59,379
Oh, my. I'm tired.
287
00:22:59,463 --> 00:23:01,965
…but there are some home comforts.
288
00:23:02,049 --> 00:23:03,842
The smell of bamboo is very nice.
289
00:23:05,344 --> 00:23:09,139
This will be the team's home
for the next 12 weeks
290
00:23:11,058 --> 00:23:15,103
whilst they teach Sagalee
how to survive in the jungle.
291
00:23:25,614 --> 00:23:28,534
More than three months after his rescue
292
00:23:30,035 --> 00:23:33,247
today's the biggest day
of the young bear's life…
293
00:23:40,921 --> 00:23:45,092
as he takes his first steps
back into the wild.
294
00:23:47,135 --> 00:23:49,513
Come, come, come.
295
00:24:04,987 --> 00:24:06,989
After a cautious start…
296
00:24:10,742 --> 00:24:14,621
he's so excited by his new surroundings…
297
00:24:14,997 --> 00:24:17,791
Sagalee, come, come, come.
298
00:24:17,875 --> 00:24:21,712
…he stops following Panjit
for the first time in months.
299
00:24:23,172 --> 00:24:25,591
Sagalee, don't go far.
300
00:24:35,434 --> 00:24:38,270
He wants to explore
301
00:24:38,353 --> 00:24:40,147
but that's good.
302
00:24:42,316 --> 00:24:43,316
Come, come, come.
303
00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:45,903
He's following now.
304
00:24:46,403 --> 00:24:49,740
And so, the day's lessons begin.
305
00:24:52,701 --> 00:24:54,953
He got used to us feeding him.
306
00:24:55,037 --> 00:24:57,789
Now he has to learn
to find food everywhere.
307
00:24:59,082 --> 00:25:00,501
Maybe the ground,
308
00:25:00,584 --> 00:25:02,127
maybe tree,
309
00:25:02,211 --> 00:25:04,046
maybe in the riverbed.
310
00:25:04,546 --> 00:25:09,384
Like all moon bears,
Sagalee has an amazing sense of smell.
311
00:25:09,468 --> 00:25:12,304
Two thousand times stronger than ours.
312
00:25:14,306 --> 00:25:16,517
But with so many new smells around,
313
00:25:18,852 --> 00:25:22,981
it's up to Panjit to show him
what's worth sniffing out.
314
00:25:24,733 --> 00:25:27,319
Sagalee, come, come.
315
00:25:29,780 --> 00:25:31,782
Find anything?
316
00:25:33,283 --> 00:25:35,827
Moon bears are mostly vegetarian…
317
00:25:36,370 --> 00:25:38,664
What is it, ants?
318
00:25:39,706 --> 00:25:41,792
…but they do eat insects.
319
00:25:42,584 --> 00:25:45,379
He's trying to find the eggs of the ant.
320
00:25:53,971 --> 00:25:56,223
He learned how to find ants now.
321
00:25:57,182 --> 00:26:00,602
Insects make up a fifth
of a moon bear's diet.
322
00:26:01,144 --> 00:26:03,814
But it's a messy meal.
323
00:26:09,903 --> 00:26:12,531
With his all-you-can-eat buffet finished…
324
00:26:15,576 --> 00:26:17,703
it's time to return home.
325
00:26:22,165 --> 00:26:25,127
But getting an overexcited
youngster to bed…
326
00:26:27,337 --> 00:26:29,339
can be a challenge.
327
00:26:34,845 --> 00:26:36,054
Sagalee…
328
00:26:37,055 --> 00:26:38,724
Where's he gone?
329
00:26:42,144 --> 00:26:45,689
Finally, the little bear cooperates.
330
00:27:08,086 --> 00:27:09,796
Over the coming weeks…
331
00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:11,298
Come on, come on.
332
00:27:11,381 --> 00:27:15,260
…Sagalee goes on a splash course
in jungle survival.
333
00:27:15,344 --> 00:27:16,428
Come, come, come.
334
00:27:17,721 --> 00:27:18,722
Sagalee…
335
00:27:24,228 --> 00:27:26,772
Most moon bears are good swimmers.
336
00:27:29,483 --> 00:27:32,277
Sagalee's not so keen.
337
00:27:33,070 --> 00:27:34,696
Come, come. Sagalee.
338
00:27:40,994 --> 00:27:42,079
Come, come, come.
339
00:27:42,162 --> 00:27:46,041
So Panjit shows him
the easiest places to cross…
340
00:27:46,124 --> 00:27:47,125
Sagalee.
341
00:27:48,335 --> 00:27:50,212
…barely getting his tummy wet.
342
00:27:52,172 --> 00:27:53,882
His climbing skills…
343
00:27:56,260 --> 00:27:58,262
are reaching new heights.
344
00:28:04,434 --> 00:28:06,103
Not just going up.
345
00:28:06,728 --> 00:28:08,564
He is coming down very fast.
346
00:28:09,857 --> 00:28:11,900
There must be some kind of insects
347
00:28:11,984 --> 00:28:13,610
probably trying to bite him.
348
00:28:14,486 --> 00:28:15,529
He's very smart.
349
00:28:26,999 --> 00:28:31,920
As the cub starts growing
in size and confidence…
350
00:28:32,004 --> 00:28:33,213
Follow me.
351
00:28:35,174 --> 00:28:36,425
Panjit tries him out…
352
00:28:36,508 --> 00:28:37,968
I've got a crab for you.
353
00:28:38,051 --> 00:28:41,471
…on all sorts
of different jungle snacks.
354
00:28:44,766 --> 00:28:49,104
Bears are one of only a few animals
that can taste sweet foods.
355
00:28:49,813 --> 00:28:51,440
And can sniff out a honeycomb…
356
00:28:51,523 --> 00:28:53,233
Good nose.
357
00:28:53,317 --> 00:28:54,610
…from a mile away.
358
00:28:55,819 --> 00:28:57,946
Now you know how to find honey.
359
00:29:05,787 --> 00:29:08,582
Until, after three months,
360
00:29:10,125 --> 00:29:13,795
Sagalee is spending less time
in his treehouse…
361
00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:20,469
Sagalee.
362
00:29:20,552 --> 00:29:24,014
…and more time in the trees.
363
00:29:25,224 --> 00:29:27,809
Just like a wild moon bear.
364
00:29:30,729 --> 00:29:32,022
Sagalee!
365
00:29:32,648 --> 00:29:35,609
He now has the big sideburns of an adult.
366
00:29:36,527 --> 00:29:39,071
And even builds his own nests.
367
00:29:39,154 --> 00:29:42,658
Wow, he doesn't want to come down.
368
00:29:43,492 --> 00:29:48,330
Panjit knows the young bear
is now ready to survive on his own.
369
00:29:48,413 --> 00:29:50,666
And soon, he'll leave him in the forest.
370
00:29:50,749 --> 00:29:54,169
Come down, come down. Sagalee.
371
00:29:54,253 --> 00:29:56,296
See, still he's not coming down.
372
00:29:56,380 --> 00:29:58,090
But before that happens,
373
00:29:58,173 --> 00:30:01,218
he needs to encourage him
out of the branches.
374
00:30:03,512 --> 00:30:05,514
Now he can find the food,
375
00:30:05,597 --> 00:30:07,933
he's spending less time with us.
376
00:30:10,477 --> 00:30:13,939
His behavior is now almost wild.
377
00:30:14,898 --> 00:30:18,360
Eventually down,
Panjit must sedate Sagalee
378
00:30:18,443 --> 00:30:19,987
to fully check him over.
379
00:30:22,656 --> 00:30:25,242
He is now about 20 kilos.
380
00:30:25,325 --> 00:30:26,910
Very strong.
381
00:30:26,994 --> 00:30:28,787
A little bit of dehydration,
382
00:30:29,788 --> 00:30:31,915
but he looks very healthy.
383
00:30:32,624 --> 00:30:34,376
I am very happy with Sagalee.
384
00:30:35,335 --> 00:30:40,048
Fitting a tracking collar will
allow them to follow the bear's progress.
385
00:30:40,841 --> 00:30:43,802
It will fall off
when Sagalee grows bigger.
386
00:30:44,970 --> 00:30:47,306
It can tighten more.
387
00:30:48,307 --> 00:30:51,393
I hope it will help a lot
388
00:30:51,476 --> 00:30:54,479
just to know his survival in this forest.
389
00:31:01,778 --> 00:31:05,949
More than six months
after he rescued the scared baby bear,
390
00:31:07,534 --> 00:31:10,829
it's time for Panjit to say goodbye.
391
00:31:12,039 --> 00:31:17,544
Sagalee, I'm going to miss you,
but I'm happy, okay?
392
00:31:20,297 --> 00:31:25,385
It took a long time
to make a bonding with this bear cub.
393
00:31:26,595 --> 00:31:28,430
So today is hard.
394
00:31:44,279 --> 00:31:46,240
This is the right time.
395
00:31:53,539 --> 00:31:56,875
It's like when kids leave their home.
396
00:31:56,959 --> 00:32:00,087
It's a happy moment, but sad too.
397
00:32:13,016 --> 00:32:15,310
He belongs to the forest now.
398
00:32:34,955 --> 00:32:36,874
Back at the rescue center,
399
00:32:37,833 --> 00:32:40,460
and like any doting parent,
400
00:32:40,544 --> 00:32:44,339
Panjit's been following
the young bear's progress from afar.
401
00:32:45,799 --> 00:32:48,886
After release,
Sagalee crossed the riverbed
402
00:32:48,969 --> 00:32:50,929
and settled down in this area.
403
00:32:52,097 --> 00:32:54,600
It's a perfect bear habitat.
404
00:32:55,642 --> 00:32:58,812
But we don't know
his exact health condition.
405
00:32:58,896 --> 00:33:02,566
So, I need to see him with my own eyes.
406
00:33:02,649 --> 00:33:07,571
Before they left the forest,
the team set up 50 remote cameras.
407
00:33:08,238 --> 00:33:09,990
They've just been collected
408
00:33:10,073 --> 00:33:13,660
and Panjit wants to check
if they've caught a glimpse of Sagalee.
409
00:33:14,870 --> 00:33:18,582
This looks like the first one we put out.
410
00:33:20,375 --> 00:33:21,835
Beautiful.
411
00:33:22,836 --> 00:33:25,047
Is that the Great Indian Hornbill?
412
00:33:25,797 --> 00:33:27,174
Let's see next.
413
00:33:29,885 --> 00:33:31,178
What's this, tiger?
414
00:33:32,804 --> 00:33:34,556
My God!
415
00:33:35,182 --> 00:33:37,351
Man, it's quite big.
416
00:33:38,227 --> 00:33:41,438
If he meets the tiger,
it will finish him off.
417
00:33:42,272 --> 00:33:44,608
They search through hours of clips.
418
00:33:53,075 --> 00:33:55,494
This is not Sagalee.
419
00:33:55,577 --> 00:33:57,037
It's a different bear.
420
00:33:58,455 --> 00:33:59,957
Sagalee's smaller.
421
00:34:01,542 --> 00:34:03,919
Panjit begins to fear the worst.
422
00:34:10,425 --> 00:34:12,094
My God!
423
00:34:15,973 --> 00:34:17,266
We've seen Sagalee.
424
00:34:32,406 --> 00:34:35,199
He looks very healthy, very active.
425
00:34:36,534 --> 00:34:37,744
Very cute.
426
00:34:41,873 --> 00:34:43,041
Yes!
427
00:34:43,125 --> 00:34:44,458
Let's go.
428
00:34:44,543 --> 00:34:48,088
Thanks to the dedication
of Panjit and his team.
429
00:34:50,007 --> 00:34:51,007
I'm done.
430
00:34:52,176 --> 00:34:56,221
…sixty-one moon bears
have been returned to the wild.
431
00:35:01,727 --> 00:35:03,770
Now, 62.
432
00:35:26,627 --> 00:35:28,754
- Next time…
- Easy, boy.
433
00:35:28,837 --> 00:35:30,547
…an elephant orphan
434
00:35:31,632 --> 00:35:34,134
must overcome his fears…
435
00:35:36,803 --> 00:35:38,514
stand up to bullies…
436
00:35:40,307 --> 00:35:42,601
and learn to make friends
437
00:35:44,186 --> 00:35:48,899
if he's to find a new family in the wild.
