Have you ever wondered what species are native to Britain and which animals have been introduced? Or how animals have adapted to changing environmental conditions and increasing human interference?

This 3 day course will use lectures and hands-on activities to give participants a basic knowledge of the development of the British fauna from the Pleistocene through to the Modern day. Topics such as evolution, zoogeography, domestication, introductions and extinctions will be addressed, including how humans and animals interacted through history. Mammals, birds, fish, amphibians and reptiles will be all included.
