Very keen amateur naturalist, conservationist and rewilder. I love the natural world and all life, from plants and fungi and insects to sharks and blue whales. I have a close affinity to East Africa, it's wildlife and peoples. Do you share my passions?

Did you know that fruit can make up more than half – close to 60% – of what chimpanzees eat?
The team at our Tchimpounga Sanctuary ensures the rescued animals receive nutritious and balanced meals. They get their fruit locally, too, supporting farmers from the community.

Illegality is always scary when on your doorstep. Keep safe.
Highly organised hare hunting with Basset hounds going on around my cottage. Dialled 999 & all details taken but no Police response.
Lots of cars coming & going as they coordinate the movement of the dogs with the 2 huntsman following on foot.
Scary.

For the avoidance of doubt, this is part of the scene that I described to the Police.
I had seen a tired Hare go past earlier.
Hunting with Bassets is a long terrifying process for the hare. They slowly wear it's strength down field after field.
Hunting at its most barbaric.

But do not be naive to think that this will end the war on nature or that we have not already triggered greatest mass extinction in 66 million years or even 252 million years

Where are the trees?
We have A LOT of this landscape and less than 4% native woodland. This should be a rich mosaic of habitats, moor, bog, woodland, montane scrub…We force it to remain in this artificial state. We don’t need to give every inch of our uplands over to sheep, grouse and deer stalking.
