I want to say a massive thanks to Paul for doing this for me. He was so professional and I believe added a further "dimension" to the "story". We know he is extremely experienced and knowlegable but Joe Public wouldnt. I think they would of done tho after hearing his interview. I think the public might be bored of seeing a "obsessive manic tortoise owner" but Paul's interview showed that apart from the emotional/personal side, there is a "serious" side to the growing problem of tortoise theft.

A MASSIVE thank you Paul.

No problem Lisa,
I think the message is firmly in the public eye, and lets hope that recovery of this very precious collection is soon attained. I know speaking to Wendy, that the local Wildlife crime officer PC Blackman, has this case very much "in hand" and I am sure he will do his upmost to try and resolve the situation.
Rumour has it, that he might even get a bonus "Cake", at the next JMAMT meeting for his efforts.
PS I am giving a talk on North American Box Turtles tonight for the Suffolk Tortoise group. Be assured, that they too will be "on message" to look out for these aninals for you too!
