Army Garrison Gives Endangered Birds Vital Lifeline
Endangered wading birds in North Yorkshire are being thrown a vital lifeline by the Army.
A haven for species like curlew, oystercatcher and lapwing – all in acute national decline – is being created at Catterick Garrison, the Army’s biggest base.
It's around the size of a football pitch, with the diggers having now been brought in with the aim of trying to save animals in crisis.
