episode description
For Marlice, a visit to Harnas, her mother's Wildlife Sanctuary where she grew up, is a trip down memory lane as well as an opportunity to reconnect with old friends. She and her mother Marieta, start the day by visiting the band of mongooses and feeding them on the lawn. Then the troop of young baboons is taken for a walk, in this way they get exercise and get rid of their frustrations. Marieta then shows Marlice the pond with crocodiles, including some babies.A female cheetah that was released back into the wild from Harnas four years ago recently gave birth to two cubs and against all expectations she brought her offspring back to Harnas - she obviously feels safe there. In an emotional moment Marlice and Rudie show their two sons Zacheo and Nicklai the wreckage of a plain in which her father and brother crashed many years ago. Fortunately both survived the crash. Rudie shows us where he secretly built a tree house for his and Marlice's honeymoon. In a very special moment Marlice meets up with an old friend, a brown hyena that slept in her bed when he was still a pup - and he still recognizes her.
