Yes it is Suzi. I'd imagine, if trained, they could tell us where the small newt species were too.
The Eurasian Badger reportedly has a sense of smell rated at an amazing 600x more powerful than ours. Edited by Liz Heard - 08 Oct 2018 at 9:53pm |

Just in case you haven't heard, this was in the news today.
Nothing to do with UK herp species, but probably of interest to many here. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-46614138 |

In a similar vein, saw this in last months Fortean Times - an eel that lives in soil...

 I didn't know the Fortean Times was still going! I never see it these days, though that might just be because only the larger newsagents (with hundreds of magazine titles i can't be bothered to sift through) stock it. Nice to know it's still available though - I'm sure Charlie would be chuffed.Before it became all tattoos and tits, 'Bizarre' used to be good too. |

yeah, still going strong, I get it delivered as can't be bothered to try to hunt for it, same with Viz! Somehow they still manage to keep getting enough interesting articles after all these years, I can still recommend it, really look forward to receiving it. This month has a big article on strange goings on just up the road from us in Hythe, Vicki's dad remembers it all happening - phantom soldiers, weird lights, headless figures etc, all along one stretch of road in the early 60's. |
