In a prairie dog town in South Dakota, a team of researchers discover that black-footed ferrets, a critically endangered species, are not only actively breeding in the wild again, but also maintaining self-sustaining populations — proof that reintroduction programs are paying off. This is good news for researchers who have spent countless nights capturing, tagging, vaccinating and DNA-tracking ferrets for captive breeding programs. Join Wild Chronicles in a journey into the night to shed light on the promising fate of one of America's most endangered species.
