Humanima

Today, many animal species are under threat, some even heading for extinction. They are endangered by man, their environment, or even by other animals.

From Canada to Mexico, Africa and Asia, Humanima goes in search of passionate people who have built up extraordinary relationships with animals and nature, and who strive, day after day, to preserve these fragile species. Each episode takes us to the heart of nature to visit the reserves in which these specialists care for and protect species such as seals, monkeys and bears, whose populations have shrunk dramatically in recent years.

We meet a veterinarian busy with springtime newborns at the zoo, men and women who provide shelter for sick and abandoned animals, or those who rehabilitate birds of prey, study whales, ducks, geese or a population of wild horses on an island in the Atlantic Ocean. These unsung heroes make us realize that we can respect and share our world with other species. Here lies the great challenge of the 21st century.
