In Cape Town's V&A Waterfront, a dedicated team works to protect urban wildlife amid the hustle of crowds and a busy harbour. They strive to resolve conflicts, safeguard species, and promote harmony between people and animals. Their efforts reflect compassion, aiming for a future of coexistence in the urban environment. However, their commitment is tinged with heartache as they confront the suffering of animals, which fuels their resolve to foster a more compassionate relationship between humans and wildlife.
