Episode Overview

Chris delves into the reasons behind the UK's coastlines and waters being prime habitats for two coastal species: the grey seal and the Manx shearwater. He also advocates for the often-misunderstood British gull. Along the way, he encounters two remarkable animals that have unique methods for navigating Britain's coastal areas—the shore crab, which uses its feet to detect scents, and the bottlenose dolphin, capable of pinpointing a fish from 200 paces away in complete darkness through echolocation.
