Episode description

In this episode we talk to the brilliant Chantal Lyons about her book "Groundbreakers" which is all about Wild Boar. For us in the UK this is a challenging species which we hunted from our shores many years ago but for which there is an ecological argument for restoration. It is challenging this one though, they make a huge mess and are difficult to control at any level. But we should have a discussion about all and any species that were once here and see whether they may fit into our landscape again at some point. Chantal's book does the two side of this equation very well. I hope our interview brings out some of the best point on both sides.
