Event information
Fiona Mathews and Tim Kendall will take us on a safari unlike any other, based on their book Black Ops and Beaver bombing, where they travelled from Scotland to the Isles of Scilly in search of Britain's marvelous animals. They will explore the many mammals of Britain, the threats to their survival, the struggles that plague conservation and what should be done to protect them.
