Season 1

In China’s leading giant panda center, cute cubs are tackling some essential life skills, from how to chew bamboo to the art of keeping your balance up a tree. In the maternity unit, pregnant females prepare for the arrival of the next generation. Up in the mountains, special pandas destined for release get used to life in the wild.

The junior cubs learn that eating bamboo leaves is trickier than tackling shoots and get to grips with climbing in the rain. Wolong’s state-of-the-art neonatal clinic has a healthy batch of newborns to take care of, while up the mountain, the rewilding pandas must get used to snow. A pair of ambassador pandas prepares for a new life overseas.

A new class starts at Panda School, and first-time panda moms must prove themselves as teachers. Cubs learn that getting down a tree can be much trickier than climbing up. Snow days bring out the inner cub in the adult pandas, making lessons for the little ones even harder. Up in the mountains, one cub gets a step closer to life in the wild.
