Rebecca Stott on the joys of becoming a seal warden.

"After months of hearing about the climate emergency", writes Rebecca Stott, "I thought it would be a good thing to spend some time around a species that was doing really well".
She decided to become a seal warden...but the job is rather different from what she was expecting.  
"This wild, old, slithery, stinking world of the sand dunes really isn't cute" she says. "But there are some things in nature, dare I say it, that are a lot more interesting than cute". 
 
Producer: Adele Armstrong
