Ruth Tingay is a raptor biologist by training having worked in several countries on a range of species before returning to the UK to fight the battle for birds of prey and their continued persecution. 

Formerly the president of the Raptor Research Foundation Ruth has a strong grip on how the science works and this shows in her fantastic blog uncovering the world of raptor persecution here in the UK.

Ruth rarely gives interviews so this was a real treat to chat to her not just about persecution but also her path as a conservationist.
