Join us for a fascinating conversation with Dr Sean McCormack, vet, Beaver Trust ambassador, co-founder of Ealing Beaver Project and founder of Ealing Wildlife Group, as we explore beaver reintroductions in the heart of London.

Sean sits at the intersection between community and wildlife reintroduction, and has done a huge amount for raising awareness about beavers and connecting people with their wetlands.

In this episode, we will be finding out about:

The Ealing Beaver project: Hear about the inspirations, challenges and successes of bringing beavers back to an urban environment.

Community engagement: Learn about the importance of community buy-in, diverse perspectives and addressing misconceptions in rewilding projects.

Lessons from beavers: Discover how beavers can teach us about self-willed landscapes, adaptive management and the benefits of stepping back and observing.

Also coming up: Find out who wins the fact off, judged by Sean!
