WHY: In NORTH WOODS LAW, Animal Planet follows the true adventures of the elite Maine Warden Service, one of the nation's original guardians of the great outdoors. Saving lives and fighting crime across the most heavily wooded state in the Lower 48, encompassing 18-million acres of rugged wilderness, the game wardens' beat begins where the pavement ends. Whether they're rescuing animals in distress, tracking poachers or chasing fugitives, the wardens are never far from danger. But these wardens aren't on patrol just to catch the bad guys. When hikers or hunters vanish into the North Woods, the game wardens are responsible for locating and bringing them home safely.
In the season four premiere episode titled "And the Little Ones Too," Warden Jonathan Parker must rely on unconventional resources to solve the case of a beaver hit by a truck in a parking lot. Sergeant Tim Spahr explores possible criminal activity in the death of one of Maine's most endangered species. Later, Sergeant Spahr attempts to save an abandoned baby gray fox.
