In this episode, we continue our journey through the world of primates, thanks to beautiful footage captured by the BBC. For the great primate family, group cohesion and mutual support are essential, and the importance of family is the underlying theme throughout this documentary. We'll see for the first time a new species of orangutan living on a remote plateau on the island of Sumatra. We'll also observe gibbons in the trees, performing daring acrobatics with their companions, demonstrating the importance of group play in developing motor skills. We'll also see many other images of fascinating social behaviors, demonstrating that emotional bonds are the foundation of life.
