The upcoming episode will shine a light on the Big Island’s earthquakes and the Kīlauea eruption that began in May 2018.

Lava flows from the volcanic eruption separated many farm animals from their owners; however, thanks to first responders and local heroes, the abandoned farm animals were rescued by helicopter and flown back to safety.
