    Eleanor Smith

    Eleanor Smith, MSc Environmental Biology

    "For my Master’s dissertation I am researching energy expenditure in beavers, and as part of this project I get to work with the Wildfowl and Wetland Trust on the reintroduction of this animal to the UK.  Working with the Wildfowl and Wetland Trust has been really beneficial – I have learnt a lot about the management strategies they implement to look after native and alien wildlife, and have developed some great contacts for the future."
