At the border between Kenya and Tanzania, on the Olkere plain, young mothers have found their oasis. A vast expanse of tender grass couched in the heart of the savannah, as if to defy the aridity.

Linked to Patagonia in Argentina is a narrow strip of land. The Valdes Peninsula winds it way along a capricious line of sand and red sandstone cliffs in the Atlantic ocean. It's called the nursery of the south Atlantic. Every year thousands of sea mammals are drawn to these peaceful waters and virgin beaches to give birth, to reproduce. On the vast plateau swept by the winds, pampas hares encounter ferocious Guanacos, and nearby Magellan penguins. A new season of births is beginning, under the drowsy gaze of the patriarchs of the sea.
