Plot Synopsis

DOUG TO THE RESCUE is a half-hour reality series that follows drone pilot Doug Thron, as he travels into the devastation left by natural disasters where he uses advanced tech to rescue lost animals and reunite them with their owners. Nothing is easy in the aftermath of a natural disaster. There's often no power, no cell phones and few public services. People are displaced, often separated from their loved ones with no easy way to make contact. When resources are scarce and too many people are in need, what happens to the domesticated animals that people were forced to leave behind? That's where Doug comes in. From hurricanes to wildfires, Doug and his dedicated team travel to the hardest hit areas -- relying only the supplies they can carry including their secret weapon: next-gen drone technology outfitted specifically for their unique mission. Follow along with Doug every thrilling and emotional step of the way, from the often-dangerous searches and dramatic rescues to the successful reunions with grateful owners.

The entire five-episode second season of DOUG TO THE RESCUE drops on Thursday, June 16, 2022 on CuriosityStream. This season, Doug Thron is going further than ever, encountering animals in the wild like never before -- from the East African Grasslands where the communities struggle to live in harmony with a growing hyena population...to the Dominican Republic...to tornado-ravaged Kentucky towns -- working with scientists, experts, and conservationists to pioneer new paths for his cutting edge technology. Whether it's a wild fox, a newborn puppy, or a pack of urban hyenas, Doug is on a mission to make sure no animal is left behind. Season 2 episodes include:

"Dominican Republic": In the season opener, Doug takes his drone to the Dominican Republic to rescue puppies that have been abandoned in the municipal town dump.

"Malawi (Part 1)": At the request of a conservation research group, Doug heads to Malawi in East Africa to help track a pack of hyenas through the urban landscape.

"Malawi (Part 2)": In Malawi, Doug puts his infrared drone to the test, tracking huge fruit bats across the city and pioneering a new path for wildlife medical care.

"Greenville, CA": After the Dixie Fire devastates the tiny CA town of Greenville, Doug heads in with his old friend Shannon to rescue the pet cats and wild animals that have been left behind in the burn zone.

"Kentucky": In the season finale, Doug takes his drone to the tornado-ravaged towns of Kentucky to rescue the slew of cats and dogs that have been lost in the brutal December 2021 storm.
