We were greatly saddened to learn of the death on 26th July of legendary scientist, environmentalist, inventor and futurist James Lovelock, on what was his 103rd birthday. Tonight, as a tribute to and in memory of James Lovelock, we bring you another chance to hear the 2019 Mooney Goes Wild special about the great man.

Derek is joined by Richard Collins, Éanna Ní Lamhna, Terry Flanagan & Niall Hatch. Topics for discussion this week include: Wildlife in the Banner County, remembering James Lovelock, Cranes breeding in Ireland again, Learning to love weeds, The Cliffs of Moher and Cork-bred bison in the English countryside.

There is great excitement that Cranes are returning to nest in Ireland, following nesting attempts by a pair of Common Cranes at an undisclosed Bord na Móna site in the Midlands in recent summers. Terry Flanagan meets up with Dr. Mark McCorry, Head of Ecology and Bog Rehabilitation at Bord na Móna.

Niall Hatch visited the Cliffs of Moher as part of a special documentary about Puffins that he is currently making for Mooney Goes Wild. He took the opportunity to chat with local wildlife expert Tom Doherty, who has worked as a Ranger at the Cliffs of Moher for 16 years.

We speak to Evan Bowen-Jones, Chief Executive of the Kent Wildlife Trust, about this ambitious rewilding project and the roles it is hoped these Cork-bred bison will play in restoring the natural balance in the woodlands of Kent.

Broadcaster and writer Anja Murray, joins us on tonight’s programme to make the case for weeds.
