Alright
this is a bit off a strange request but i was wondering if anyone can help me.
I do a bit off volanter work with the local wildlife trust (mainly chainsaw/climbing and skilled manual labour type things nothing intelectual, thank god) as well as being on the comitee. I'm slowly gettin the comitee trained and round towards 'killing' things is not always a bad thing althou some are a lost cause
The reserve manager was on the phone earlier and wanting sort off wildlife/countryside type tales off working on the land type stuff. He has a few parties off primary school and slightly younger kids coming to the new resource centre and is jist wanting intresting fact type stuff to try and get them intrested in nature. He's an ex teacher and is good with the kids but jist wants more hands on type stuff.
Wot i was wondering is... Does anyone ken where i can get educational type 'resource' that would suit kids but still put accross a true picture and not the 'disney' picture u usually get off the countryfile types. I remeber reading that some organisation had a teaching dvd made about a cartoon keeper, does any one know which org it is. (i'm in basc,sga and gct and dinae think any off them but will be phoning them for advice/stuff)
Does anyone have anyintresting skull collections, or even jaw bone collections that they are wanting rid off or we could borrow for a while until i get some myself. Even good photo's off classic deer damage/browseing type off thing
I can still remember going up to ronnie rose's place almost 25 year ago and got his 'circle of life' talks and him showing us skulls and droppings and that type off stuff. After that spent the next 2hrs running round the woods picking up every bit of animal shite i could find to ask wot it was. It's probably him that started me off into nature and then ferretting, shooting
Cheers for any advice. cb
