Pine Marten Drop-In
No booking required.
About the event
Shy, curious and playful. The pine marten is a stealthy, acrobatic hunter that relies on the cover of woods and trees for its foraging missions. It was once a fundamental part of our woodlands, but it is now critically endangered in England and Wales and completely extinct on the south west peninsula. As a result, we have lost a beautiful, fascinating wild creature that plays a key role in our woodland natural processes.
Pine Martens Bounce Back: the Two Moors Pine Marten project is reintroducing pine marten populations in Dartmoor and Exmoor to restore this missing link in our woodland environment and to help people live alongside these amazing animals once more. Once very much part of our local woodlands, these animals play an important role in our countryside. If you would like to know more about pine martens and the Pine Martens Bounce Back: Two Moors Pine Marten project, come along at ask your questions over a cuppa at one of our drop-ins.
