304. Meet some of the UK's most elusive animals - at the British Wildlife Centre

Britain's wildlife is often extremely elusive and many species are rarely seen. Unless, of course, you head to the British Wildlife Centre in Surrey. Here, David Mills has an unrivalled collection of mammals, reptiles and other creatures that you can watch and photograph in semi-natural surroundings.

Join Annabel Ross who visited David and enjoyed a fabulous tour and some unique insight into our native wildlife.
