#41 Series Special (1) - Great Crested Newt

Welcome to a special series of the Ecology Academy podcast, dedicated entirely to understanding the fascinating world of great crested newts. As spring arrives, we delve into in-depth discussions with leading experts to shed light on this unique species.

Over the upcoming weeks, we'll be presenting interviews with established authorities in the field. We start our series with John Cranfield from Herpetologic Limited, continue with Nikki Glover from Wessex Water, who is renowned for her work with detection dogs, and conclude with an insightful conversation with Sarah Garrett from NatureSpace.

This immersive series is our first thematic venture, aiming to offer a comprehensive overview of great crested newts, from licensing to surveying. We hope it not only engages but inspires you to delve deeper into the mysteries of Mother Nature.

Your feedback matters to us! Feel free to write to us at [e-mail] with your thoughts. We are also on the lookout for co-hosts who could join me in interviewing other inspiring figures in the field of ecology, adding valuable dimensions to our podcast. Your favourite ecologist could be our next guest!

Stay tuned as we embark on this exciting journey into the world of great crested newts!
