Chris Packham is a well-known Television presenter and Naturist who grew up in Hampshire and now lives in The New Forest. Mr Parkham trumps the trumpet for wildlife conversation and its patron of several conversation organisations and projects. Furthermore he is also the President of the Bat Conservation Trust of which Chris has had a life-long interest and is a Bat enthusiast. Chris has said he has Bats in his loft and would never make plans to move them on. He’s has also suggested more assertive conservation ideas in the past.

Assertive Conservation

For example, in 2008 Chris suggested trying to stop saving the Giant Panda from extinction as it is too expensive, and that we should redirect funds to protect other animals and habitants instead. He even said “Eat the last Panda” if necessary! It won’t be necessary but Chris got his point across. Chris has over the years also criticised the TV show –‘I’m a celebrity get me out of here’ a few times for its mistreatment of animals in his opinion. Another subject that Chris Parkham is interested in is over-population and Chris is the patron of an organisation called Population Matters. It is a concern that as the world population increases, wildlife habitat is forever shrinking.

The Really Wild Show

As well presenting ‘Springwatch’ and ‘Winterwatch’ which charts the British wildlife during the changing of the seasons. Chirs is for me, best known for being the face of ‘The Really Wild Show’ co- hosting with Michaela Strachan and the late Terry Nutkins. In the 90’s this was my stable TV diet watching Chris and Michaela traveling all over the place and showcasing wildlife all over the world. Lastly an insight Chris shared recently was that he was diagnosed with Asperger’s in his 40’s. It was interesting to learn how his struggles in social situations have not stopped him from being an acknowledged TV presenter. Actually Chris joins a long line of famous people with Asperger’s – Michael Palin another TV presenter and comedian to name another.
