Aussie Animal Island

Mission Maria Island (1x1)

Air date: Sep 03, 2013

In Hobart, wildlife vet Sarah Peck, Phil Wise and their team have come up with a plan to ensure an ‘insurance population’ of disease-free Devils. They’ll live wild on a remote island location away from contagion on Maria Island off Tasmania’s east coast. A team of scientists and zoologists have been putting Tasmanian Devils through a variety of tests to see if they have what it takes to fend for themselves living in the wild.
