The Secret Life of the Zoo: Season 5, Episode 2

5 - 2: Episode 2

The new run continues. African painted dogs K'mana and Ville were thrown together as a breeding couple after the dominant female died. But K'mana was never Ville's first choice as partner and still carries a limp from her battles with Ville's previous mate. Now she's pregnant with Chester Zoo's first ever litter of this rare and endangered species. It's vital that they thrive, but will the couple pull together to ensure the survival of their offspring? Okapi couple Dicky and Stuma are going through a lull in their relationship, with Stuma showing more interest in food than in Dicky's lacklustre advances. Keen to help rekindle their spark, keeper Gareth separates them in the hope that absence will make the heart grow fonder.
