Description

Join Na Dúlradóirí as they explore the natural world! In each episode, the young scientists choose a topic and go for a deep dive into the world of animals, plants, and the ecosystems they live in.

The team continue their learning about nature with an investigation into squirrels. They travel to Tolleymore forest in search of one of Ireland's most charming native animals - the red squirrel. These shy animals are making a comeback following threats to their habitats by humans and the newly arrived grey squirrel. Finnoula and Colm chat with wildlife expert Pól in the studio who offers advice in how to make life easier for the cute rodent and the unlikely story of how grey squirrels arrived in Ireland. 

Have fun learning about nature with Na Dúlradóirí!
