Natural World - Bringing Up Baby (2009) (Part 2/6)

"Natural World investigates the vital bond between animal mothers and their babies. The more we study animals, the more we realise just how emotional they are; all mothers are faced with tough choices as they struggle to bring up babies in a difficult and dangerous world, constantly balancing their own needs with those of their infants. Yet there are many ways to raise your brood, from the fish who looks after her young in her mouth to the extended childhoods of gorillas or orang-utans. Narrator Sir David Attenborough"

LiFetommi I don't think the partner would leave just cause the baby had died. It is not be the mother's fault, because all the mothers come around the same day, it is just the baby was too weak...

I'm pretty sure the penguins stay with their partner for life but I am not completely sure. They would probably just try again, and maybe hoping for a stronger baby.

i love those great lights in antartica. I wonder if the male penguins get upset/angry at their partner for not making it back in time. Also would they look for a new partner the next season since their current is not up to the task? Anyone with knowledge on this i would appreciate hearing
