Not destructive but even if it provides a beneficial role for a lot of animals theres always one animal that loses out. For example norway spruces, lots of red squirrels love them but they also outcompete scots pines in mountainous areas meaning they have the potential to become extinct in some areas and lose their status as a dominant species in others

Wallabies are gorgeous little things. I'm an Aussie and we are very fond of them. They aren't dangerous at all, and if they're accustomed to getting food from people then they will definitely try to be everyone's friend. In general they will just watch you from a distance though. Tasmania is a climate analogue for England with cold snowy winters. The wallaby species from Tassie should be fine, but for mainland species it might be too cold.

There's Wallabies in the wild near me in Staffordshire, just outside Leek. I've seen them myself, out in the moorlands near the roaches. I know they're supposedly extinct there now, but they're still there afaia.

You missed out pheasants, red legged partridge and other various non-native gamebirds. Not to mention the fact around 60 million are released into the countryside every single year.

Hoped the Wallaby would be mentioned. Have actually seen them at large on the Downs, a truly marvellous sight to see and I hope they thrive for years to come. When you finally mentioned NZ I had the really nightmarish thought that you were going to say that the weta was living in the UK (sorry but the best weta is a DEAD weta, they used to thrive in our garden and every time you opened the shed door you would have to swish around with the broom or they'd drop on you from the rafters, I still have nightmares).

Fascinating!!! As an Australian I never expected this!

Gonna watch this later but I know it’s gonna be good

A great video, most important it raises awareness of our native island species. Coypu? Muntjac are an issue, some in my garden a week ago they are everywhere. Greys .. cute, but need to be gone for tufties sake.

Can you share the introductory song on your videos?

Just a small VO tip, if that's okay: Whilst the diction, intonation and pacing are fine, the wide dynamic range is a bit jarring. Try not to hit each part following a breath with so much punch, and then don't tail off as you approach the next pause; level it all out somewhat. ;-)

Informative video but saying Ireland is under the umbrella term of "the UK" left a bad taste in my mouth

You could mention the grey squirrel, it’s nearly wiped out the native red squirrel in the UK, I don’t think I’ve ever even seen a red squirrel. But I suppose you’re doing more surprising animals in this video. I liked this video though, I would be interested in a part 2.

I saw a stick insect once in the north east of England so it seems they are alright in slightly colder climates as well possibly

Lived the video and would love to see a part 2

I know it's a big can of worms but there are also the big cats. I don't know if they are still around (or rather managed to breed successive generations) but know for certain that a lot were released into the wild in 1976 when the DWAA (dangerous wild animals act) came into effect prohibiting the unlicensed keeping of certain animals, those who already had these animals were faced with either handing them over to licensed zoos or more likely having them put down by vets because the zoos were full. As such people took them into the countryside and turned them loose, I know two families down in the south west who did this and they apparently weren't the exception

It's weird how I just found out day before yesterday about wallabies existing on Lambay Island and now you post about them existing in the UK

i saw 3 chipmunks a few years ago on a golf course near Birmingham. They were 15-20yrds away just chasing eachother.

I have seen UK wallabies twice. The first time I was driving to Leeds in Yorkshire, I was between Bawtry and the A1 and I thought I saw a hessian sack of sand, like the sacks used to hold temporary road signs in place…until it moved and I saw it’s face. Oh how everyone laughed when I said “I saw a kangaroo on my way here” Second time it was on the side of the A46 as I was approaching Newark. I also had a ‘mouse’ in my house when I lived in Derbyshire. Courtesy of my warrior cat Ronnie. Only this mouse size creature looked like a mouse and a kangaroo had had babies. I released it, unharmed. Only years later did I find out the poor thing was not native and I’d probably sentenced it to certain death. Most _exotic_ animals can’t survive a cold winter. Such a pretty little pale grey/creamy beige thing. Sorry I can’t remember it’s name. Edited to add, I live in the West Midlands, pretty damned close to Birmingham. (8mile to city centre) and I have badgers, non invasive in my garden!
