Description
Follow the adventures of Ranger Rae and the Wildlifers, a crew of colourful creatures who use their special skills to help wherever there’s trouble in nature. Beaver’s a super engineer. Sleepy Bat’s skill is sonar. Wildcat’s a proud predator. Deer’s strong and speedy. Fox has a nose for trouble. Shy Mole’s an expert digger, and Dragonfly’s always buzzing. Ranger Rae’s the leader and can understand animals. And 12-year-old Apprentice Roxy dreams of becoming a real Ranger and being able to talk to wildlife too. In each story, the Wildlifers go on a curious case. They travel to different places in the natural world, from coastlines and remote islands to forests and city streets, and meet a host of weird and wonderful creatures along the way. From catching an escaped pet rat on a remote island, to solving the mystery of a giant bat or tracking a magpie thief through city streets, the gang’s skills are put to the test in their quest to help the natural world. Uncover stories of adventure and discovery with friends in the wild world. Ranger Rae and the Wildlifers is a podcast from the National Trust, produced by Fun Kids Radio.
