Airdate: World’s Oddest Animal Couples 2

With 800 Words wrapping tonight Seven is back to animals for two weeks, with World’s Oddest Animal Couples 2.

Presumably an X Factor will take up the final Tuesday night of the ratings season.

Animal biologist Dr Carin Bondar gets up close and personal with some of the most incredible animal couples in the world. We witness the extraordinary relationships that exist between the most unlikely animal couples, from an elephant who is the leader of a herd of buffalo, to a Jackal who looks after an ageing whippet. Carin also uncovers some wonderful but bizarre human and animal relationships, from Rocky the penguin and the woman who looks after him, to Malan, a five year old boy and Skylar, an adult cheetah. With the help of the world’s top animal behaviour experts, Carin will discover why these bizarre bonds have formed and in some cases, lasted for generations.

8:40pm Tuesday November 10 and 17
