Wild at Heart: Episode 1

Business at Leopard’s Den isn’t flourishing. Sarah decides that new luxury accommodation which will attract wealthy guests is the answer to their financial problems. Danny is finding it tough to juggle mending the fences, his veterinary practice and the health of his animals. A zebra dies unexpectedly, and he needs to stop whatever killed it spreading to other animals. Sarah is on a shopping trip with her mother Caroline (Hayley), purchasing soft furnishings for the new accommodation, when there is a problem with Sarah’s card. The bank has frozen her credit as they are constantly overdrawn. Zebras slip through the damaged fencing into the neighbouring reserve, Mara, angering the manager, Fatani. As Danny tries to smooth things over, he finds two tiger cubs in Fatani’s “zoo for endangered species” and is outraged. Later, the cubs go missing and Fatani immediately accuses Danny of taking them. Danny knows nothing about it but in retaliation, Fatani lures away workers from Leopard’s Den with the promise of instant cash. Things go from bad to worse when Danny learns that his lab bills are still outstanding. Will the Trevanions be able to turn their luck around? And will they unmask the true tiger cub thief?
