On Sunday May 6th, 7:50pm, Planet Earth Live will be broadcast to 140 countries - the most ambitious live wildlife TV series ever.
Over the next few months the lives of the Earth’s youngest animals truly hang in the balance. Join Richard Hammond, Julia Bradbury, and a team of world class cameramen as they follow the incredible lives of baby animals including elephants, black bears, macaque monkeys, meerkats, grey whales and lion cubs.
The crews are out on location right now and they've been tweeting back photos: @BBCPlanetEarth
Here's some of the first pictures of the animals that will make Planet Earth Live a must see.
