Lost Cat? It’s Doug To The Rescue!
Nothing is easy in the aftermath of a natural disaster. There’s often no power, no cell phones and few public services. People are displaced, often separated from their loved ones with no easy way to make contact. When resources are scarce and too many people are in need, what happens to the animals, both wild and domestic, that are stranded or left behind? That’s where drone pilot Doug Thron comes in. This week Michelle Fern chats with Doug Thron, the star of the new heart-warming, animal rescue docuseries called Doug To The Rescue.
