Quick Summary

People working to protect Asia's endangered wildlife

About This Program

The series concludes with a look at the work of people striving to protect Asia's endangered wildlife, and what routes conservation could take in the future. In Japan, scientists take pregnant sharks, killed accidentally in fishing nets, and rescue their unborn young in an incubating system that simulates a womb. The programme also visits a village that used to be a hotbed of poaching and is now a centre for bird tourism
