November 27, 2020 Seawilding with Danny Renton
Rewilding is all about letting nature take over to the benefit of
ecosystems, inhabitants, and us. This is just as true in the sea as it is on the
land. Seawilding is a group on the west coast of Scotland aiming to reestablish a
viable native oyster population that could improve its local habitat for other
species and provide a viable and sustainable fishery for the local community around
Loch Craignish.
Danny Renton, director of the project, joins us to discuss digestive biscuits,
oyster hoisters and strange packages from the Royal Mail.

November 20, 2020 Protecting Whales and Dolphins with Alison Lomax
One quarter of all whale, dolphin and porpoise species, collectively
known as cetaceans, have been seen in Scottish waters. As Director of the Hebridean
Whale and Dolphin Trust, Alison's job is to find out more more them: where they
live, how many there are, and what needs to be done to protect them. In this episode
we chat about watching cetaceans from the land, finding toxic killer whales, and why
whales capture our imagination.

November 20, 2020 The Arran Coast with Jenny Stark
The Coast of Arran Seabed Trust are a pioneering local group that
created the first community led No Take Zone around Lamlash Bay on the Isle of
Arran. This is an area where nothing can be taken from the water, seabed or sea
shore and has become a model case study for marine conservation across the UK.
Nicolette talks with Jenny Stark about all aspects of COAST's work and some of
the amazing creatures you can find in the area. If you haven't heard of a sea
lemon or sea mouse before, you are in for a treat.
