This nature documentary from almost 5 years ago runs for 40 minutes and was directed by David Lickley and Drew Fellman. It is about elephants and apes. If you have an interest in these, this documentary certainly deserves a look. And if not, don't worry. These two kinds of animals are not among my very favorites either and yet I managed to enjoy this a lot, especially the very young animals were so cute. It has a lot of heart and also gives interesting facts. And Morgan Freeman as narrator never hurts either. There is some wonderful animal photography in here. To be more specific, this is about animal orphans and the people who give it their best to reunite them with their own again. Frequently, it's the human's fault that it had to get that bad as poachers killed their parents. That's why the film also has a nice moral. Sadly, those responsible will probably never hear about it or even if they do, they will probably not care. But raising awareness is not a bad thing either and it should teach us the most important less that we have to care for the planet we live on. And for all its wonderful creatures. However, actually we should know that already before watching this movie. And last but not least, there is also some pretty nice music in here. Very good documentary and I highly recommend it. A must-see for everybody with an interest in nature documentaries and I cannot praise the people in this video enough for what they do.

Prepare to cry. This is a heart breaker. In a good way. I am speechless and in awe of the work that these ladies do. This was an inspiring film and made me want to do more with my life to give back. It really touches the viewer in a way that makes you realize we are all the same on a basic level, animals and mankind. They are so innocent that it makes me grieve for what we have done to affect their environment and right to be free and live full lives. I found myself laughing, crying, and feeling deeply moved by these animals and those who are saving them. This is a fantastic documentary. And Morgan Freeman narrates, which is sort of icing on the cake.

Narrated by God (Morgan Freeman), you know it has to be worthwhile.Although I saw it on conventional DVD, since it was filmed in the Imax large format the detail is very good, better than most DVDs.The story features two different scientists whose vocations are to save orphaned creatures, nurse them to an appropriate age, and turn them back to their natural habitats, thus "born to be wild."In Kenya, orphaned young elephants, usually a result of illegal poaching (killing) of their mothers, need to be bottle-fed for several years, before joining a herd of more mature elephants.In Borneo similarly orphaned baby Orangutans are cared for until they are old enough to be released into the wild to live on their own.While the film has a "conservation" message running through it, a statement to reduce the destruction of native forests and stopping poaching, it wasn't a message hammered so much to detract from the enjoyment of the film.

I just saw a screening of the movie today. They did an incredible job documenting this movie. It looked really cool over the IMAX Dome. I was truly amazed. A lot of laughter. Makes you think about what is out there in the world and how there is so much we can do to help others. I didn't realize that Baby Elephants can't survive on their own. The people that take their time to work with these animals are a blessing in this world. They have a lot of heart. The Orangutans have a lot of characteristics that we do. They can be humorous. They can get into trouble when they want. They cling to others for support. Make's me want to go out there and experience what I saw today.
