Outback - Season 1 Episode 1

The Kimberley region in North West Australia is one of the world's largest wilderness areas with small but tough human populace and large number of dangerous yet beautiful animal species. As the rainy season ends, both the crocs and the locals hit the water, so the rangers must do their best to keep them apart. Indigenous ranger Albert Wiggan arrives in the remote Dampier Peninsula to observe the elusive bilbies, also known as rabbit-bandicoots, and protect them from their archenemy – the feral domestic cats. New baby kangaroos named Joey and Kingsley arrive at Mandy Watson's kangaroo rescue and rehabilitation center at Kununurra. Bush pilots at the Mornington Wildlife Sanctuary set controlled fires to prevent large wildfires later in the year. Ecologists capture predatory marsupials called quolls to find ways to save their dwindling population. As the tide retreats from the Dampier Peninsula, paleontologist Steve Salisbury visits a grand intertidal zone informally known as the dinosaur highway which contains countless dinosaur footprints.
