Overview

As endangered species are vanishing at alarming rates, can just one person really make a difference? If that one person is Dr. Purnima Devi Barman, then maybe the answer is yes. When a wildlife photographer travels to India to document the Greater Adjutant, the world’s rarest stork — known to the locals as Hargila — he discovers Barman and her inspiring efforts to rally the local community of Assam, India, to save it.
