In this heartwarming two-part series, Ellie Harrison and wildlife cameraman Max Hug Williams follow the stories of wild orphaned animals, and meet the amazing people who save their lives so they can eventually go back to the wild.

In Australia we meet Danny, the baby koala in need of round-the-clock care, and Neil, a tiny orphaned wallaby, whose carer Stella believes Neil may die from stress if she can't find him a companion.

In Costa Rica there's Newbie, a baby three-toed sloth battling with pneumonia. Wildlife manager Sam is doing all she can to help Newbie beat the infection and get back to the rainforest.
