This episode of Wild Conversations is all about catching up with the whirlwind that is daily life at Lincolnshire Wildlife Park. Jess sits down with Steve to chat through the never-ending list of jobs, challenges, and surprises that have been keeping the team busy.
Between ensuring the welfare of hundreds of parrots, responding to the daily needs of animals across the park, and managing staff, you’d think there wouldn’t be much room left for anything else. But in true LWP style, the development team have started on two enclosure refurbishments at the same time — because why do one job when you can do two? Jess laughs with Steve about the chaos that comes with it, while Steve admits it’s just another week in the parks version of normal.
The real excitement, though, comes with a spoiler Steve finally lets slip: a new resident is on the way. After weeks of keeping it under wraps, the secret is out — a young Eurasian Lynx will soon call the park home. For those who remember the emotional journey with Nigel the Puma, this moment feels like history repeating itself. The team are already bracing themselves for another character who’s bound to steal hearts and make his mark.
It’s a lively, honest, and sometimes chaotic chat that perfectly sums up what life behind the scenes of a busy wildlife park is really like.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
