Hutchinsons' Eco-Tourism Initiatives

The Hutchinson family, living in Sydney, Australia, decides to pursue their dream of living in the African bush. They move to South Africa to restore an old hunting ranch, Pridelands, into an eco-tourism site. Their mission is to secure land for biodiversity and allow wildlife to thrive. Facing challenges like habitat neglect and rubbish, they aim to connect Pridelands with the neighboring Kruger National Park, enhancing wildlife movement. Despite Pridelands' small size compared to Kruger, their efforts contribute to preserving the natural world.
