Invasive species, red squirrels and stories from Carstramon Wood

  • Summary

  • In our final episode, we find out more about invasive non-native species (INNS). To start, Ed chats to Hazel Forrest, Species Advocacy Officer at the Trust, to find out more about INNS and the threat the pose to native wildlife. We then hear from some of the Saving Scotland’s Red Squirrels team about the vital work they are carrying out across Scotland. Finally, we head to our Carstramon Wood wildlife reserve in Dumfries and Galloway to hear from some of the volunteers who are working hard to preserve the ancient woodland and the valuable native wildlife there.

    Words of the Wild is a podcast from the Scottish Wildlife Trust hosted by Ed Turpin and Rachel Faichnie, produced by Ed Turpin and Pete Haskell with editing support from Bespoken Media.
