Who knew that there are rainforests in the UK?

The Wildlifers’ wits are tested when they try to catch a green-fingered thief in Borrowdale Rainforest in the Lake District. 

Someone has been stealing lichen, a strange plant life form that’s made of fungus and algae, and is essential for forest life.

While the gang are solving the puzzle, they meet a local, Cuckoo. But there’s something a bit strange about this bird. Can they trust Cuckoo or will their feathered friend land them in trouble?
