This week we head to SheOak Ridge Wildlife Refuge and interview the amazing Dr Claire Baker. Claire is an entomologist who is an expert in glow worms and worked with Sir David Attenborough as a scientific advisor on two of his documentary series. Her enthusiasm for the insect world and Australia’s native wildlife is infectious; and this includes Mungi, the Agile Wallaby that Xanthe reared, and whom Claire is preparing for a soft release.
