Woods, Moor, Heath

Episode 3 of 3

Chris Packham examines wildlife conservation. He learns of foreign conifers that do little to aid native wildlife, and asks whether fragmented heathlands should be reconnected.

Naturalist Chris Packham presents a hard hitting personal take on what's going wrong - and sometimes right - with our marine wildlife and its conservation. He finds non-native conifer plantations that do little to aid native wildlife and iconic places like the New Forest and Dartmoor that are suffering loss of habitat. He asks whether we are spending too much on cute and cuddly species like dormice and whether we should concentrate instead on connecting up important habitats like precious heathland that has been fragmented over the years.
