Dr. Oakley, Yukon Vet
Nat Geo Wild, 10pm
Season Finale!

In “Eagles and Beagles,” the Season 11 finale, Dr. Oakley meets Girly, a dog with a paw so infected that her dewclaw has fallen off. The team worries that the wound may be a form of aggressive cancer, but lab analysis will reveal the true diagnosis. In Nome, the team takes part in a special research project on golden eagles, requiring Dr. Oakley to rappel off a steep cliff to capture fledglings in their nest. And in a rural clinic, a cat has eaten its own tail, and a rescued baby moose gets a checkup following a bout with bloat.
