ABOUT THIS EPISODE
When Australia’s wildlife needed help most, Ben Dessen quit his job. Ben shares how a childhood fascination with animals grew into a mission to transform The Hills Wildlife Sanctuary into a world-class wildlife rescue and conservation centre. He talks about the risks, setbacks and moments of doubt along the way, and explains why stories like the remarkable return of the once-extinct Parma Wallaby give him hope for the future.
