Released in United Kingdom by Reader's Digest Video in 1998.
In the life of every young creature, there comes a time to leave the nest. In this skilfully filmed, wonderfully photographed video, you'll discover how young animals embark on the road to independence - from the first flight of a bald eagle to the mass exodus of baby loggerhead turtles from beach to sea.
See how young albatrosses respond to parental desertion and the treat of being eaten by a tiger shark even before they've left the ground ... watch how orcas stay close to their mothers' protective side fo their entire lives, breaking out only for a brief courtship with potential mates from outside the family circle.
In wolf packs, only the dominant 'alpha' couple may mate.
You'll follow the trail of a lone she-wolf whose strong urge to breed leads her to a male outside her pack who will become her mate for life.
Visit a prairie dog 'town' in the Ballads of South Dakota and a kangaroo troop in Australia, where each new generation faces the same age-old competition to secure a home or territory and find a mate. And see a mother orang-utan force her elder son to leave her side and go off on his own. Whether violent or peaceful, co-operative or competitive, the transition to maturity is a turning point in the life of every creature on earth. Let THE ROAD TO INDEPENDENCE open your eyes to the amazing rituals which ensure the continuing survival of our world's animal life.
