Conservation’s Dirty Secrets

Synopsis
Reporter Oliver Steeds investigates the shortcomings of major conservation charities and discovers that misplaced sentimentality and commerical interests are taking precedence over science. Among the issues Steeds explores are collaborations with inappropriate corporations, an obsession with "cuddly" and photogenic wildlife, suspect strategies and misuse of funds.
