Michael W @mawilps Mar 10, 2024 This nature docuseries was really good. Angela Bassett and the entire crew did a fantastic job on making this docuseries. It really shows the viewers what female wild animals do to survive and to protect their young. It's truly amazing. If you haven't seen this docuseries yet, check it out sometime. It's a must see.
