Storytelling through the eyes of animal heroes. 

Critter Fixers: Country Vets, Cesar’s Way (w.t.) and Secrets of the Zoo highlight everyday animal heroes across the country who combine empathy and skill to care for all living creatures and to inspire the next generation of animal lovers. In Georgia, Critter Fixers: Country Vets’ Dr. Terrence Ferguson and Dr. Vernard Hodges are breaking down barriers and fixing critters with heart and humor as two of only 2% of black veterinarians in the United States. Meanwhile, at the world-famous Columbus Zoo & Aquarium, Dr. Priya Badropa is headed into the fifth season this summer of Nat Geo WILD’s wildly successful series Secrets of the Zoo, caring for the zoo’s beloved animals. And, Cesar Millan is back and better than ever! In the new series Cesar’s Way (wt), Cesar’s can-do attitude and heartwarming transformations make people feel like they can overcome any obstacle, starting with our own disgruntled, four-legged pals
