Meet the women saving Patagonia's biggest birds

In Chile’s Patagonia National Park, we meet a women-led team preparing to release to the wild 13 Darwin's rheas, a bird that nearly went extinct in the region just 20 years ago. We follow the preparations for the reintroduction and witness how the women's efforts are helping to protect the birds and rebuild a self-sustaining population of this flagship Patagonian species. --- We want to hear from you.
