Lord Howe Island, in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, is considered one of the most beautiful islands in the world, not only because of its beaches and turquoise lagoons. It's a UNESCO World Heritage Site because it's home to hundreds of endemic species.
The underwater world around Lord Howe is also unique. Due to special current patterns, the southernmost coral reef in the world lies here. But introduced rats threaten the unique flora and fauna. Then the determined islanders, led by naturalist Ian Hutton, fight back with the national park rangers!
In a battle lasting more than two years, the rodents are defeated. Then the miracle of Lord Howe begins. Suddenly, animals that had been thought to be extinct for centuries reappear. Lord Howe Island is proof of how humans can destroy nature and how they can save it.
