Shap Outdoor Festival talk: bringing ratty back to Cumbria's riverbanks

Last summer saw the return of ratty to the Lake District. Virtually wiped out in Cumbria, the release of 365 water voles was the culmination of 18 months’ hard work to create the right conditions to bring back this small, yet vital part of the ecosystem to the area.

Join Dave Greaves, ERT’s Species and Habitats Officer to hear the whole story of how water voles came home to the Lowther and Haweswater area.
