The Return of the Pine Martens

An evening with Johnny Birks, hosted by North Wales Mammal Group and Chester Zoo on 18th October

After a close brush with extinction, the pine marten is recovering its numbers in Britain and Ireland, so it is time to reacquaint ourselves with this enchanting mammal.

Johnny Birks has been beguiled by pine martens since his teens. After research and survey work on other mustelids, a job with the Vincent Wildlife Trust gave him the chance to work on his favourite mammal. Johnny has written a book called 'Pine Martens' which is part of The British Natural History Collection.

Come along to this talk hosted by North Wales Mammal Group and Chester Zoo to learn all about Johnny's research and adventures with this amazing creature, but be warned his enthusiasm is very contagious!

The talk starts at 7.30pm however the lecture theatre will open its doors at 7pm for refreshments. A huge thanks to Chester Zoo for providing an excellent location for this talk.
