Warning - This film contains some distressing images.
Across Africa, Vultures are disappearing. Their exceptional adaptations to consume the dead are now a curse. Demand for their body parts, powerline collisions and indiscriminate poisoning are pushing them to the brink. But Kerri Wolter has been fighting back. Alongside her dedicated team, she rescues and rehabilitates these villainised creatures. Kerri reveals a tender side to vultures rarely seen and that their relationship with death keeps our ecosystems free from catastrophic disease outbreaks, making them one of nature’s greatest anti-heroes. Directed by Zac Lazarou
