New Podcast: Sid Francis, Sichuan
In the March podcast we talk to legendary mammal guide Sid Francis from his home in Sichuan.
Sid runs through a career as geographically diverse as it is professionally. After studying agriculture in the UK he worked as – among other things – a shepherd in the Falkland Islands and a school teacher in Denmark before moving to China and becoming a wildlife guide.
We talk about how much China – and the public’s interest in wildlife there – has changed over the past few years.
Sid describes the current mammalwatching scene in Sichuan and Qinghai Provinces, both packed with a set of mouthwatering mammals..
And in a world exclusive we learn that mammalwatchers are almost ‘normal’ … at least compared to some birders!
