Saving Britain's Wildlife

The everyday heroes of the RSPCA rescue a goose shot with a crossbow bolt, a young and sick seal that's clinging onto life and a fox cub strangled in a football net. Then, it's a race against time to free a deer caught in a metal fence.

A peregrine falcon is grounded after being covered in cooking oil, and the Mallydams Wildlife Center team performs a delicate clean-up to restore its ability to fly. Then, a hedgehog is stuck in a pipe, and a duck must be freed from a car radiator.

A rescued hedgehog is covered in a blue substance that was deliberately painted on, and the wildlife hospital staff race to clean off the potentially toxic substance. Then, the RSPCA sea-boat team attempts an epic release of seven seals into a colony.

Seven baby ducklings are barely clinging to life, and the Animal Collections Officer must decide the best way to save them. Then, a badger risks losing a limb after being caught in netting, and one rescuer must confront her fear of snakes.

A swan with a fishing hook through its tongue must be rescued from a lake and undergo surgery. Then, ducklings covered in oil face a life or death clean-up operation, a heron must undergo rehabilitation to fly again and a baby owl fights for survival.

A raven that was kept as a pet must forget its tame behavior if it's ever to return to the wild. Then, a deer is trapped between crumbling cliffs and the rising tide, and baby blackbirds separated from their parents need to be hand reared.

The staff at East Winch Wildlife Center works tirelessly to tackle the growing problem of seals trapped in discarded fishing nets. Then, a swan with its foot caught in discarded rubble must undergo veterinary treatment, and an abandoned fawn is rescued.

An Animal Collection Officer must overcome her fear of heights to rescue a trapped crow. Then, a baby hedgehog needs specialist care, a swan needs help getting airborne again and a fox cub finds itself stuck tight between a wall and a fence.

A wildlife rescuer must intervene when a goose threatens to cause a major accident by stepping out into traffic. Then, a feisty fox requires some innovative treatment for its injured leg, and an owl needs specialist care to have its eyesight restored.

A breakout of deadly avian botulism wipes out the population of geese on a lake, all except for one plucky survivor. Rescued and revived, he undergoes an extraordinary journey of recovery to return back to the wild.
