Are these tiny predators truly the villains of the natural world?
In short: This film explores the lives of weasels, including an orphaned weasel named Twiz, to uncover the reality behind their fierce reputation. Witness the dramatic journey of a mother stoat in Yorkshire as she raises her first family.
The documentary examines the extraordinary survival skills of the weasel family, creatures that possess a bite more powerful relative to their size than a tiger's. Through a garden in Yorkshire equipped with over 50 cameras, the film provides a rare look at a mother stoat's efforts to raise her kits.
Beyond weasels, the film investigates the problem-solving capabilities of honey badgers, the legendary flexibility of ferrets, and the acute sense of smell found in wolverines.
