Wild Great Britain

Around a hundred of Britain’s 6,000 islands are inhabited by people, leaving the rest to extraordinary animals that have battled the elements and made these wild places their own, which is a familiar scenario for Britain’s coasts.

From the Scottish lochs and golden reed beds to southern swamps, rivers and the ponds of Britain’s back gardens, Britain’s “Water Worlds” are wild corners rarely explored – but they are the most biodiverse places in Britain.

Our mountains and uplands are the most dramatic wilderness in Britain. Inaccessible, beautiful and brutal... only the hardiest of animals survive here.
