MOONEY GOES WILD – HABITATS

Derek Mooney Image Name: Derek Mooney Description: Derek Mooney returns to RTÉ Radio 1 this Sunday 5th April 2015 with the first in a new series of his much-loved nature programme, Mooney Goes Wild. The hour-long programme, which will air Sunday nights between 10pm – 11pm, will see Derek and guests explore the natural world and all of its wonders.

In this series of Mooney Goes Wild specials, Biologist, Terry Flanagan, Ornithologist, Eric Dempsey and Botanist Matthew Jebb take listeners on a wondrous journey into the habitats of some our native and exotic plant and animal species. Every plant and animal needs a habitat, an environment where all their daily needs are met. Food, water, and a home to raise their young. From the Lowland rainforest of Malaysia, where Banana Trees thrive to a derelict castle along the banks of River Corrib in Co. Galway to the grasslands and farmlands of Ireland where the Skylark is common.
