Survey Team "Wild Thing - I Love You"

"Wild Thing - I Love You"

RDF Media have been commissioned by Channel 4 to make a new 9 part TV series called ‘Wild Thing’, which will be transmitted in a late Sunday afternoon tea-time slot on Channel 4 in the Autumn.

The Team

Presented by Bill Bailey, and a team of experts (an eco-strategist, zoologist and an engineer) the premise of the programme is that each week the team are called to help examine a problem where wildlife is put at risk. Pictured above is a team of Bournemouth University students who had a training day in July. They were duly filmed for an episode of the show, while Dr. Anita Diaz was also interviewed as the scientific advisor organising their deer survey.

Hind

Over the course of several days the team focus on the animal under the spotlight looking at it’s habitat, lifecycle, breeding and feeding habits as well as other animals included in their eco system. They then work with experts already in place to help facilitate practical engineering solutions for their continued survival. You'll be able to see the outcome of their investigations during the Autumn transmission of the programme.
