Wild
Long ago, the first people who arrived in Ireland were met with rich primeval woodlands, where they lived the life of hunter gatherers, reliant only on the seasonal offerings of nature. In the intervening millennia, our wild landscapes have been shaped by successive waves of colonists, each with a different set of values and a capability to change the environment around them to match their changing needs. WILD documents this journey through time, reaching in to the future, where our relationship with nature might be rekindled and some of our landscapes might become wild again. Join ecologist Anja Murray on a journey through time, exploring the ever changing relationship between people and nature in Ireland.
