Ep 3. I’m Not Lichen This

  • Summary

  • Who knew that there are rainforests in the UK?

    The Wildlifers’ wits are tested when they try to catch a green-fingered thief in Borrowdale Rainforest in the Lake District.

    Someone has been stealing lichen, a strange plant life form that’s made of fungus and algae, and is essential for forest life.

    While the gang are solving the puzzle, they meet a local, Cuckoo. But there’s something a bit strange about this bird. Can they trust Cuckoo or will their feathered friend land them in trouble?
