with Tony Soper
It's now five years since the hunting of common seals was stopped in England. How are they doing today? Wildtrack goes to The Wash - the biggest common seal colony in Britain - where a seal count is under way.
The water rat isn't really a rat at all, its a vole! Tony investigates why the numbers of this delightful mammal are decreasing, and asks your help in a nationwide survey of the water vole.
Su Ingle reports on the release of some of the rarest of British butterflies - large tortoiseshells. And there's some good news on how seven captured peregrine falcons were returned to the wild.
