WILDerland: Billabong and Beyond (2025)
Season 1
Embodying the spirit of exploration, Jake Cockburn (13) takes up the WILDerland torch, guiding adventurers of all ages from the untamed wilds of Australia to the wide-open landscapes of Texas. In this special, Jake trades city comforts for crackling campfires and dusty trails, guiding viewers from Queensland's misty rain forests to the coast of Texas. Along the way, he strikes sparks with flint and steel, shows how to pitch a tent, cooks WILD meals, and hikes to a fantastic waterfall. Every segment seamlessly blends practical bush-craft with the broader mission of Primitive Planet: empowering young explorers to step outside, tackle challenges head-on, and become stewards of the wild places they love.
