Shared Planet: Living with Carnivores
On the Tuesday 16th July edition of BBC Radio 4’s Shared Planet, Monty Don spoke with Professor David Macdonald regarding the potential impact that fencing could have in African lion conservation.
From the BBC website: “Lion biologist Craig Packer from the University of Minnesota will be speaking to Monty about his observations in Tanzania where upward of 100 people a year are being killed by lions raiding villages, the lions allegedly being driven to switch their prey to people by lack of their preferred prey outside the national parks. David Macdonald, Professor of Wildlife Conservation at Oxford University, will be exploring this area of conflict with Monty in the Shared Planet studio.”
