In the 50th episode of the Wild X Podcast, we welcome Indy Kiemel Greene — wildlife conservationist, birder, campaigner, and one of the most passionate young voices in British nature conservation.

We talk about Indy’s journey from growing up near Sherwood Forest to volunteering with conservation organisations, guiding wildlife trips in the Hebrides, and raising money for the Hebridean Whale and Dolphin Trust through an epic Land’s End to John O’Groats walk.

Along the way, we dive into:

• why insects might be the most overlooked conservation story of our time
• the importance of volunteering and connecting people with nature
• memorable wildlife encounters on Scotland’s west coast
• how young people are shaping the future of conservation

It’s a wide-ranging conversation full of wildlife stories, humour, and a real reminder that conservation starts with curiosity, passion, and connection.

So sit back and enjoy a brilliant episode of The WildX Podcast.
