Pets: Wild at Heart | Episode 1| Playful Creatures

NATURE brings the beauty and wonder of the natural world into your home, becoming in the process the benchmark for natural history programs.

Pets: Wild at Heart | Episode 1| Playful Creatures

Season 34 Episode 5 | 52m 58s | CC

In this astonishing program filled with innovative photography and scientific revelation, we investigate how our favorite pets get in touch with their wild side through play. From talkative budgies, marathon-running hamsters, wall-climbing cats and diving dogs, as well as an island where rabbits rule and a city where dogs live a secret double life.
