Chasing The Giants Of Guyana With Caimans and Anacondas

Deep in the northern region of the Republic of the Congo lies a vast tropical rainforest that holds a surprising secret about modern wildlife conservation. While many believe that national parks are the only safe havens for critically endangered species, this documentary reveals why a staggering 70,000 western lowland gorillas are thriving inside a commercial logging territory. This is the story of a unique pact between humans and nature. At the same time, the film addresses the harsh realities facing the Congo Basin. Armed rangers wage a constant battle against the illegal bushmeat market and high-value elephant poaching networks, while local villages face devastating crop raids by forest elephants. From traditional Baka pygmy communities using ancient medicine trees to modern towns built on sustainable timber jobs, this footage highlights the delicate balance between economic survival and protecting the world's second-largest rainforest.

FRONTLINE and The Wall Street Journal investigate the decades-long failure to stop a government doctor accused of sexually abusing Native American boys, and examine how he moved from reservation to reservation despite warnings. (Aired 2019) Wall Street Journal reporters Christopher Weaver, Dan Frosch and Gabe Johnson spent more than two years investigating the Indian Health Service, the federal agency that provides healthcare for Native Americans. In collaboration with FRONTLINE, they found that the agency employed a number of problem doctors, including Dr. Stanley Patrick Weber, a pedophile who — despite the suspicions of co-workers up and down the chain of command — continued treating children for more than two decades. Funding for FRONTLINE is provided through the support of PBS viewers and by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.
