“I've been really lucky to be immersed in nature for my career and I've had the most magnificent life changing experiences where I felt myself connected to the natural world in a really powerful way. It's everything that we need."- Liz Bonnin
Wild animal biologist and science and natural history broadcaster Liz Bonnin joins actor and WWF ambassador Cel Spellman in this special episode of Call of the Wild, supported by players of People’s Postcode Lottery.
As part of WWF's Prescription for Nature campaign, together Cel and Liz explore how nature inspires her work, how important indigenous and local knowledge is in the fight against climate change, and what exactly happened when Liz came face to face with an elephant in Botswana.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
