Episode 11
Behind the scenes at Longleat. Will it be happy families or a brutal feud when Xena, the abandoned cheetah cub, is re-united with her mum and siblings?
Has Xena, the one-year-old cheetah cub, got what it takes to be re-united with her mum? Abandoned at birth, the odds are stacked against this beautiful big cat. She has been hand-reared and her legs are deformed. Kate Humble and Ben Fogle discover how devoted keeper Matt is doing special exercises with her to strengthen her legs, and osteopath Tony Nevin uses cutting-edge laser treatment to do what he can to help. But how will Xena cope when she comes face to face not just with mum Wilma but the three other cubs Wilma has since given birth to? Will it be happy families or a brutal falling out?
Kate is in the Tiger House to find out about the tragic death of 13-year-old Shouri.
Jean Johansson gets up close to some creepy-crawlies famed for being indestructible and finds out why you really wouldn’t want to kiss a cane toad.
