County Down

Barra visits the Mountpanther estate between Dundrum and Clough, home to many animals from deer to wallabies, where he helps local farm manager Tara Russell. He travels to Castlewellan forest park where his fitness is put to the test.

At Murlough nature reserve, Barra meets ranger Barry Crawford. The dunes here are rich in wildlife, and a group of Exmoor ponies keep them in top condition for a huge range of species to thrive. Today the ponies are in for their yearly veterinary check.
