Airdate: Meet Henry

TEN screens a cuddly doco next  Sunday on Sea World’s ‘Henry’, the first Polar Bear born in Australia in more than two decades.

Presented by Carrie Bickmore , this includes vision from inside the den of the moments just after birth plus vision of the mother’s labour, and Henry’s early days learning to swim.

Promoted well, this could pull a good family audience for TEN.

He has to be one of the most photographed babies of 2013 – only second to Prince George – and one of the most adorable sights you will ever see. It is time to meet Henry.

Join Carrie Bickmore as she takes you behind the scenes for an intimate experience into the very earliest days in a little polar bear’s life. See how this healthy cub came to be the first in Sea World’s polar bear program and the first born anywhere in Australia in more than two decades. Meet his parents Liya and Nelson, and the incredible team of animal husbandry experts that made a difficult and delicate process, a reality.

Named after Henry Hudson, the famous explorer who discovered Hudson Bay in Canada, Henry, like his namesake, has already proven to be quite the adventurer, boldly exploring his new surroundings. Watch as this seriously cute white ball of energy takes his first steps, discovers ice, and takes the plunge and learns to swim.
