Mumbai: US broadcaster Nat Geo Wild has greenlit ‘Aloha Vet’ from Shine America. This is a six-episode series set to air next year that follows the good doctor on an island adventure as he hops from beaches to mountains to jungles, bringing aid to animals both domestic and wild.
Nat Geo Wild executive VP, GM Geoff Daniels said, “Aloha Vet joins the Nat Geo Wild portfolio of programming, which spans from awe inspiring veterinarians making a difference every day, to blue chip specials from our Destination Wild franchise, to explorers who have dedicated their lives to wildlife.
Dr. Sims is the perfect addition to the wild family.”
Nat Geo Wild cameras follow Dr. Sims through his busy days as the main local veterinarian in Kauai. His phone never stops ringing, his hours are long and even weeks where sleep is not a consideration. With a heart of gold, Dr. Sims will help any animal that can walk, crawl, fly or swim. In one week he’ll care for a variety of animals including horses, dogs, cats, goats, bats, birds, reptiles, fish, dolphins, sea turtles and whales.
Shine senior VP , executive producer of factual entertainment Mike Aho said, “We’re so excited to bring Dr. Sims’ unique story to the Nat Geo Wild audience, the perfect home for this special docu-series. Dr. Sims is beloved in Hawaii, where he flies from island to island, rescuing animals of all sizes and taking care of them regardless of whether their owners can pay his fee or not.”
If an animal is in pain or hurt, Dr. Sims doesn’t let the Hawaiian terrain stand in his way. Viewers will see him jump into his plane, hop on horseback, drive an ATV or set out on foot to help save animals.
Whether he’s performing procedures on mountaintops, near waterfalls, on secluded beaches or on the tailgate of a truck, one thing is certain: The animals are in good hands.
