Episode 2

Documentary series following vets across Scotland, as they tend to a wide variety of animals. In this programme, there is an owl with a broken wing at Blair Drummond Safari Park.

This series takes viewers on a journey across Scotland following vets as they tend to animals from small to large to very wild. Stories of joy and stories of sadness as we meet all creatures great and small.

In this programme, we meet Craig Devine a specialist cardiologist vet, as he visits Ardene House in Aberdeenshire. We see the care and compassion he feels for the animals he treats, as he examines a dog that turns out to have more wrong with him than could possibly have been anticipated.

In Wick, vet Iain Maclean has some challenging calves to treat, one with a badly broken leg and another that has eaten too much barley. The decision he makes has significant consequences for the farmer.

And at Blair Drummond Safari Park, vet Colin Scott tends to a beautiful Scandinavian owl with a broken wing. She is the pride and joy of her keeper Mark who has looked after her from birth, even taking her home to his own house to get used to people and pets. His care and concern is apparent, and he relies on Colin's skill to nurse Lucy back to health.
