A once-in-a-lifetime sighting triggers a deep dive into the uncharted world of the Florida Panther. It's a race against time - to reveal the unseen natural history of an icon surviving in an ancient ecosystem.

Peter and Dr. Rae adventure through Florida to discover the results of a new "wildlife corridor" protecting animal migration and endangered species recover. Florida is home to one of the most diverse ecosystems in the United States with over 4,300 known species. Now, 18 million acres of wilderness allows some of Florida's most precious species to live and travel across the state without the need to cross roads or areas of human habitation. Peter and Dr. Rae learn just how vital the corridor is to species like the Florida panther, black bear, alligator and even the tiny, but hearty, scrub jay. They meet the incredible people fighting to protect the Sunshine State's ecosystem.

Peter and Dr. Rae see first-hand how forward-thinkers are using innovation for wildlife restoration. In Washington state, Peter helps install artificial beaver dams designed to kickstart a ravaged ecosystem through a natural partnership with wild beavers. Then Rae visits a laboratory in the California desert that's developing new tech to help save the desert tortoise. Finally, Peter and Dr. Rae trek the Florida Corridor with a wildlife photographer who is capturing stunning images in order to help threatened wildlife have a safer, more suitable habitat.
