Join Dr Helen Taylor, Conservation Programme Manager from the Royal Zoological Society of Scotland, and Sally Morris, Conservation Officer from Buglife Scotland, as they reveal the fascinating world of medicinal leech conservation. Learn about their groundbreaking success in breeding these remarkable and often misunderstood creatures, and why protecting Scotland's invertebrates is crucial for our ecosystem.
This episode explores 'Species on the Edge', an innovative partnership programme of NatureScot and seven nature conservation charities, all dedicated to safeguarding 37 threatened species along Scotland's coast and islands.
As we navigate the historical roles of leeches, from medicine to their modern ecological contributions, this episode reinforces the importance of public involvement in protecting Scotland's unique wildlife and how everyone can help through tools like the iRecord app.
