Rewilding The American Prairie

Peter and Dr. Rae journey across America's endangered prairies to highlight vital conservation efforts. In Wyoming native lands, Peter witnesses the return of American bison, a symbol of rewilding. On the vast grasslands of Montana, Dr. Rae explores the crucial role of prairie dogs, the ecosystem engineers of the great plains. And on the sun-drenched southern California border, Dr. Rae takes part in efforts to save threatened burrowing owls, where artificial burrows are aiding their survival. The fate of the American prairie hangs in the balance on Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom Protecting the Wild. Looking for the full episode? Stream on NBC.com, the NBC app and Peacock.
