Description

In this episode we chat to Katie Berry from Saving Scotland’s Red Squirrels, a project led by the Scottish Wildlife Trust, in partnership with NatureScot and others, working to ensure red squirrels continue to be a part of Scotland’s native wildlife.

Katie explains more about the work involved, the threat from the invasive non-native grey squirrel, the importance of volunteering, and how we can all be part of this work.

We also meet with NatureScot’s recently appointed Chair, Professor Colin Galbraith, who digs deeper into why invasive non-native species are a major threat to our native wildlife and what else is being done to tackle them.
