an ancient world of desert and dust.

Hidden amongst the highest mountain peaks
8
00:00:45,253 --> 00:00:46,838
lies a secret valley.

She's about to embark on
the greatest challenge of her life.

00:02:43,496 --> 00:02:48,376
Up till now, her mother Lowanna
has kept her warm and protected.

She has just 12 months to learn everything
she needs to survive on her own.

[dingoes howling]
55
00:05:43,843 --> 00:05:47,847
His son
is a young black dingo called Miro,

who was born
at the same time as Mala last winter.

00:06:30,014 --> 00:06:33,393
she won't flee with Mala
unless the hunt comes to them.
66
00:06:35,019 --> 00:06:37,438

Miro just doesn't have the focus.
91
00:09:53,843 --> 00:09:56,846
He's inexperienced and easily distracted.
92
00:10:00,182 --> 00:10:01,309
And it shows.

Miro will eventually leave the pack
and start his own family.

She now has a gorgeous pale gray coat,

just like her mother.
123
00:12:17,319 --> 00:12:22,199
Mala has been born
into a family of kangaroos known as a mob.
124
00:12:26,078 --> 00:12:27,538
She's the youngest joey,

A rip in his left ear is a battle scar
from his struggle to the throne.
140
00:13:33,103 --> 00:13:36,190
As king, Bamir is the only buck

who's allowed to flirt openly
with the ladies.

When he passes by,

00:13:47,451 --> 00:13:52,581
the other males must crouch down
and cough to show their respect.

And he's already mastered
this whole hopping thing.
155

[Buru grunts]
367
00:33:07,610 --> 00:33:10,488
King Bamir once made
this very same journey…
368
00:33:14,742 --> 00:33:17,328
after years of boxing his way to the top.
369
00:33:19,580 --> 00:33:23,835
Now, he will only fight if someone
is bold enough to challenge the king.
370
00:33:30,258 --> 00:33:33,302
And there's one, a rising youngster,
371
00:33:34,429 --> 00:33:37,056
who believes
he should be wearing the crown.
372
00:33:39,434 --> 00:33:42,437
He's certainly acting that way
with the ladies.
373
00:33:45,523 --> 00:33:47,150
His name is Doan.
374
00:33:51,237 --> 00:33:55,033
Bamir's stiff-legged walk
is kangaroo for "back down."
375
00:33:58,453 --> 00:34:00,204
If Doan won't submit,
376
00:34:00,955 --> 00:34:02,915
Bamir will have to fight him.
377
00:34:06,002 --> 00:34:08,171
And Buru has a ringside seat.
378
00:34:12,175 --> 00:34:14,177
[tense music continues]
379
00:34:25,980 --> 00:34:30,401
Bamir tries for a headlock
but is unable to throw Doan to the ground.
380
00:34:36,741 --> 00:34:37,742
[grunting]
381
00:34:38,826 --> 00:34:39,911
He tries again.
382
00:34:45,333 --> 00:34:47,001
A bad miscalculation,
383
00:34:48,294 --> 00:34:49,629
but it's not over yet.
384
00:34:51,672 --> 00:34:53,674
[tense music continues]
385
00:34:57,637 --> 00:35:02,183
An embarrassing unforced error by Doan
all but ends the fight.
386
00:35:04,602 --> 00:35:05,686
[Doan snorts]
387
00:35:11,901 --> 00:35:14,695
Bamir celebrates his victory.
388
00:35:18,574 --> 00:35:21,869
The crown remains his for now.

[majestic music plays]
391
00:35:35,341 --> 00:35:39,137
It has been three months
since Mala first emerged into the world.
392
00:35:40,263 --> 00:35:42,598
She's now outgrown the pouch.
393
00:35:51,107 --> 00:35:54,193
Mala's learning
all the best paths and shortcuts
394
00:35:54,277 --> 00:35:57,655
that have crisscrossed this valley
for thousands of years.
395
00:36:12,753 --> 00:36:15,131
When they reach the top of a hill,
396
00:36:15,214 --> 00:36:19,677
Lowanna teaches Mala
to stop, look, and listen.
397
00:36:24,265 --> 00:36:26,559
[birds chirping]
398
00:36:29,729 --> 00:36:31,981
For a kangaroo that listens carefully,
399
00:36:32,523 --> 00:36:34,984
a warning can whisper through the trees.
400
00:36:38,863 --> 00:36:42,408
[birds screeching]
401
00:36:45,286 --> 00:36:47,747

403

Mala is caught up
in the panic of the hunt.

[tense music continues]
415
00:38:21,590 --> 00:38:23,342
She's separated from Lowanna.
416
00:38:28,472 --> 00:38:29,390
She's lost.

00:38:30,141 --> 00:38:33,144

[tense music continues]
419

Having failed before,
420
00:38:39,275 --> 00:38:42,194
Miro really needs
to get it right this time.
421
00:38:52,371 --> 00:38:56,667
With so many kangaroos in flight,
it's hard for him to pick out a target.
422
00:39:10,765 --> 00:39:13,768
One kangaroo has chosen not to run.
423
00:39:14,352 --> 00:39:18,105
The king of the mob,
Bamir, stands his ground.

[tense music builds]
426
00:39:36,916 --> 00:39:39,835
A roo his size can deliver a deadly kick.

[tense music continues]
428
00:39:48,052 --> 00:39:50,763
The sandy dingo is taking a huge risk.
429
00:39:53,015 --> 00:39:54,892
She needs the rest of her pack,
430
00:39:56,519 --> 00:39:58,479
but her backup is elsewhere.
431
00:40:04,860 --> 00:40:08,072
Miro, it seems,
has made another poor choice,
432
00:40:08,155 --> 00:40:09,573
an adult female.
433
00:40:12,118 --> 00:40:14,662
He could hardly
have picked a harder target.

Mala has made a costly mistake of her own.
441
00:40:54,785 --> 00:40:58,080
The other females
all have their own joeys to look after.

[birds screeching]
443
00:41:04,378 --> 00:41:09,049

The only thing a joey truly needs
is her mother.
448
00:41:58,432 --> 00:42:01,310
And the dingo pack is still on the hunt.

[Bamir grunting]

00:43:20,306 --> 00:43:23,809
Rarely do dingoes take on
the greatest of the kangaroos.
461
00:43:27,605 --> 00:43:31,567
But even mighty Bamir
can't keep fighting forever.

[Mala sniffing]

Bamir's death
has left the valley without a king.

But Lowanna no longer
has enough milk to share.
493

It's bad timing for Mala.
494
00:47:57,291 --> 00:48:01,253
Winter frost pierces leaves
and even cells of grass.
495
00:48:04,631 --> 00:48:06,967
Splitting it apart from the inside.
496
00:48:11,138 --> 00:48:14,725
In the bitter cold, food becomes scarce.
497
00:48:19,187 --> 00:48:24,192
And the grass Mala is now forced to eat
will soon have little nutritional value.

to hunt in the spring

Miro has been forced out.
517
00:50:27,190 --> 00:50:31,028
Without the support of his family,
his future is uncertain.

Deep snow shrouds the mountains

The valley is usually protected
from the worst of the weather…

is becoming more unpredictable.

Mala has made it through her first winter.

She's now eight months out of the pouch,

and she's becoming
more and more independent.

Her baby sister Dura is now commanding
all of Lowanna's attention.
