Apple TV Debuts Trailer for “Born to Be Wild” [VIDEO]

Today, Apple TV unveiled the trailer for the all-new wildlife series “Born to be Wild,” narrated by SAG Award winner Hugh Bonneville (“Paddington,” “Downton Abbey,” “The Secret Lives of Animals“). Filmed over several years across five countries, the six-part documentary series follows six endangered young animals as they grow up in our world but are destined to return to theirs. At the heart of “Born to Be Wild” lies a powerful truth: in the face of extinction, survival often depends on the extraordinary bonds between humans and animals. “Born to be Wild” premieres worldwide on Friday, December 19, on Apple TV.

From their earliest days to their journey into the wild, the series highlights the challenges, triumphs, and resilience that define their survival – both for the animals and the remarkable people working to raise and protect them. As each animal finds its place in the world after being orphaned or born through conservation programs – from an elephant calf and two young cheetahs, to a ring-tailed lemur pup, a moon bear cub, Iberian lynx kittens and rescued African penguins – “Born to be Wild” offers an intimate and emotional look at the powerful relationships between these animals and the heroic humans dedicated to raising, rehabilitating and rewilding them to help save their species.
