Paul Spiers
Ecologist & Safari Guide
Paul has twenty years’ conservation experience within nature reserves in both rural and busy urban areas. He worked as a warden at the local RSPB Pulborough Brooks Nature Reserve for over 14 years. His expertise is in grazing and wetland management, bird surveying, working with volunteers and public engagement.
“I have a passion for the countryside, its conservation and how it is managed for people, wildlife and farm animals. To my mind, the Knepp rewilding project represents a shift in our mindset about how the countryside is managed, and this is truly exciting. I find natural processes and, particularly, the role of pigs in the landscape as ‘creators of disturbance’ absolutely fascinating (and, of course, the pigs always make me and our visitors smile). I’m really looking forward to see what we will learn next.”
