In the awareness video released by Prime Video, the once serene and rejuvenating forest is now tainted with an eerie silence, foul smell, and a morbid atmosphere. Alia, visibly shocked, stumbles upon a loaded rifle, bullet casings, and the silhouette of a lifeless body, evoking a spine-chilling realization of the gruesome and unspeakable horrors that occurred. Confronted by the crime scene and the tragic loss of innocent life in the heart of the forest, one is compelled to reflect on the equal value of all lives, be it human or animal. The video underscores the idea that crimes against any life should not go unpunished, emphasizing that 'Murder is Murder.'
Once a haven for elephants and various other animals, the forest has fallen victim to poachers who intrude, encroach, and mercilessly kill, pushing many animals to the brink of extinction.
The series "Poacher" is executive produced by QC Entertainment's Edward H. Hamm Jr., Raymond Mansfield, and Sean McKittrick, in collaboration with Suitable Pictures, Poor Man's Productions, and Eternal Sunshine Productions. Alan McAlex, known for 'Suitable Boy,' serves as the producer for Suitable Pictures. The team also includes members from 'Delhi Crime,' such as Director of Photography Johan Aidt, composer Andrew Lockington, and editor Beverley Mills.
