The SSPCA team help some pine martens, and there is a slippery customer for vet Liam.

At the SSPCA rescue centre, assistant manager Jonny has his hands full with baby pine martens, a concussed woodpecker needs help, and there is a slippery customer for vet Liam.

Series that goes inside the Scottish SPCA’s world-leading wildlife rescue centre. 

Assistant manager Jonny has his hands full when a bunch of baby pine martens are brought in over the course of a couple of weeks. Jonny will need to use all his experience to bond these orphans into a family unit. If he is successful and can get them released, this charismatic mammal’s population will receive a really big boost.

Elsewhere, one of Scotland’s more seldom seen creatures, a slow-worm, needs help from vet Liam to recover from a cat attack, the seal unit battle to release some of their charges, and a concussed woodpecker needs some TLC from the head of birds, Lorraine.
