Elephant Boy
Year of the Birds
S1 • E6 Jun 15, 1973 26m
There is great excitement in the village because a flock of birds have dived up, which, according to ancient beliefs, is a sign of a happy New Year - to drive out the birds is bringing misfortune. When veterinarian Sue Fraser discovers some dead birds, she is even blamed by the villagers for the death of the animals. In fact, there is a fertilizer that Padam, the former owner of the reserve site, used in his fields.
