Lloyd and Alice take animal care to Australia
D'un zoo à l'autre follows Lloyd and Alice as they work with Australian wildlife. The French-language series brings them into zoos, refuges and sanctuaries, where they help care for injured animals and orphaned young. Alongside that work, their journey includes opportunities to observe animals in the wild.
In their interview about the programme, the hosts describe the project as growing out of Un zoo pas comme les autres. They wanted to meet other animal-care teams, learn about different working conditions and offer practical help. Their role is therefore participatory: the journey is built around joining the work rather than simply touring each location.
Different experience, unfamiliar animals
Alice explains that caring for Australia’s marsupials required them to learn practices different from those they knew in Quebec. She brings formal animal-health training and veterinary experience, while Lloyd describes learning through work at the family refuge. Their complementary backgrounds are part of the programme’s human story.
The episode guide includes bottle-feeding orphaned wombats, working at a koala sanctuary and assisting animal carers at Australia Zoo. These situations give the travel format a concrete focus: young animals, recovery and daily routines. The recurring pair provides continuity as the species and care settings change.
Between the reef and the rehabilitation centre
Entre terre et mer, the seventh episode, combines a visit to the Great Barrier Reef with animal care in a forest rehabilitation setting. Its platform description includes sea turtles and sharks, a visually impaired tree kangaroo and Tasmanian devils. The episode’s range illustrates how the series moves between wild habitats and animals needing human support.
The hosts describe visiting both established zoological institutions and smaller refuges over approximately six weeks. They observed working methods, learned new practices and participated in care. Their existing friendship and experience of working together provide continuity as the animals and settings change.
