Take a look at the amazing animals that featured on David Attenborough's #PlanetEarth2
The programme, which is a sequel to the highly successful Planet Earth series that first aired in 2006, is back with a bang, lining up a number of uniquely fascinating creatures for us to get to know from the comfort of our couches.
Last night’s episode kicked off with a baby ibex navigating a treacherous ledge.

Moving swiftly on to an Golden Eagle wearing a GoPro. Sure why not!
Golden Eagles have the ability to spot prey 2 miles away, and dive at speeds up to 200mph. Incredible. #PlanetEarth2 pic.twitter.com/lhRyiyzgrJ

Of course the real cuteness was kept to the end and this week we were in for a real treat as we got to see some newborn grizzly bear cubs playing in the snow!
