Join Hannah Emde at the other end of the world! New Zealand is home to animals that cannot be found anywhere else. However, since humans first settled on the islands, these animals have been in danger. Some species, such as the giant bird moa, have become extinct. Others, such as the kiwi, are fighting for survival. The blame lies with the predators introduced by humans: martens, cats and rats prey on New Zealand's native fauna. New Zealand has a radical plan: the country wants to become predator-free and eradicate all introduced predators. Is this really a good idea? Wildlife veterinarian Hannah Emde travels through New Zealand's breathtaking landscapes in search of the answer. However, this alone is not enough to simply explore the animal world. Everything is interconnected.
