Ep 3. I’m Not Lichen This at Borrowdale Rainforest

  • Summary

  • Who knew that there are rainforests right here in the UK?

    The Wildlifers’ wits are tested when they try to catch a green-fingered thief in Borrowdale Rainforest.

    Someone has been stealing lichen, a strange plant life form that’s made of fungus and algae, and is essential for forest life.

    While the gang are solving the puzzle, they meet a local, Cuckoo. But there’s something a bit strange about this bird. Can they trust Cuckoo or will their feathered friend land them in trouble?
