Old friends fall out in this episode. Burt and Terrance are fellow males in the tortoise paddock, but Burt is the alpha male and, in breeding season, he feels the need to show Terrance who’s boss — which in tortoise terms means laboriously flipping him onto his back. Mind you, the pair have known each other since the end of the Second World War, so it should be no more than a blip in their friendship.
Hormones are raging elsewhere, too. One of the most touching sights is the way that Eric, a Eurasian black vulture, drops sticks at the feet of his potential mate, Ethel, to suggest, “How about a nest, and the patter of tiny talons?”
