Well done to Mia Gandola who is presenting her study "Is manual removal effective as a method of invasive species control in amphibians?" at the BT Young Scientist exhibition this week. Mia's study includes work she carried out in Galway with HSI for UCD Science & Galway County Council 🐸

We were contacted about yet another dead pet snake dumped in a public park today. This is happening far too often. Our statement on this growing trend is below. Thanks to our colleagues in Kildare Wildlife Rescue for assisting today.
