Baby animals in the wild love cuddles from mom
Watch as wild animals like tigers and elephants snuggle up to their moms in honor of Mother’s Day. Tune into the three-part special, “Animal Moms”, premieres Sunday, May 14 at 8 p.m. ET on Nat Geo WILD
This weekend we pay homage to our mothers, the ones who fed us, bathed us and led us through life's ups and downs.
The same goes for moms in the animal kingdom, who did their own nurturing, cleaning and protecting of their young.
These photographs from Nat Geo WILD display the range of a mother's love, from a baby barbary macaque snoozing on his mom's back to a lioness carrying her cub to safety.
Take a look and don't forget to thank mom this Sunday.
