Born in China Page #2
these bucks will have to
make do on their own.
(HUFFING)
The migration of
these revered creatures...
washes across the mountain plains
of western China...
like an ocean tide.
Their destination?
in the remote uplands
of the Qinghai Plateau.
(BIRDS CHIRPING)
(CUBS GROWLING)
Dawa's cubs are now old enough...
into the sunshine.
To them, this vast mountain range...
is just one big rocky playground.
(CUBS GROWLING)
Like pandas,
adult snow leopards
live very solitary lives.
So with no one infringing
on her territory...
no competition
for Queen of the Mountain...
she can focus all her attention...
on her young.
Dawa could not be more content.
Nothing compares to being loved
by the ones you love most.
(CUBS GROWLING)
And while Dawa would
love nothing more...
than to just sit back
and watch them climb and play...
she has other responsibilities.
She needs to hunt.
These yaks offer a bounty of meat...
but are far too powerful and dangerous.
She considers this marmot.
(SQUEAKS)
No, she doesn't.
- But these glorious creatures?
- (SHEEP BLEATING)
This is what dinner looks like.
Bharal sheep are Dawa's main prey.
(BLEATING CONTINUES)
Her intimate knowledge
of her home terrain...
helps her locate her prey
and maneuver them...
into rocky narrows and steep slopes...
where they are
more vulnerable to attack.
built to survive in these mountains.
Their blanched fur
is the ideal camouflage...
make them remarkably fast and nimble.
(SQUEAKING)
But Dawa is smarter.
Her cubs will go to sleep
with full stomachs tonight.
This one meal
could tide them over for an entire week.
In Dawa's world,
you must take life to give life.
Tao Tao has become
increasingly dejected...
and has been spending a lot of time...
just trying to avoid his little sister,
and his family.
But today, he's come across
some interesting neighbors...
(MONKEYS SCREECHING)
These are the Lost Boys...
a gang of young male outcasts...
some of them as young as TaoTao.
These guys know all about rejection.
Being a Lost Boy is sort of
like running away to join the circus...
except with fewer rules.
These kids don't seem
to have a care in the world.
This is Rooster...
the leader of the Lost Boys.
He's been in a lot of battles.
You see that eye?
TaoTao's father had a hand in that.
He's certainly taken notice of Tao Tao.
Maybe Tao Tao reminds him
of himself at that age.
Or maybe he just stares at stuff a lot.
In any case, if Tao Tao
has been looking...
for a way to vent his frustrations...
