Wildlife with Emily

I'm Emily Legge, a zoologist with a specialism in wildlife conservation and behaviour. I want to provide you with free videos and other resources to teach you about wildlife and how you can help it. I am doing a full time PhD researching land mammal behaviour, so I love using this channel as a way to be creative!
