Whack-a-Mole

Pull the Thread: The Wild Life

After seeing the transnational operation play out, Runako and team profile the local efforts of a Ugandan Wildlife Crime unit–all in the quest to understand why this trade remains so difficult to stop. Then it’s into the jungle to witness mountain gorillas who continue to survive and flourish. Has the team found a silver bullet, or simply dug through a can of worms?
