The Greater Adjutant Stork is a misunderstood bird that Dr Purnima Devi Barman in Assam, India, has devoted her life to protecting. In this episode, join Kate Humble and Edward Whitley to hear how Purnima built a 10,000 strong army of local female fans of the reviled scavenger. Saving it, not only dramatically transformed the outlook for the bird, known as "Hargila," but also the lives of the local "stork sister" protectors. The "Hargila Army" is now so popular that even men want to join.
