Hello!

Well I'm new to this message board!! As I spend some time abroad each year in southern Italy and Canary Isles I am interested in learning more about wildlife and conservation in these places. Also I am interested in worldwide conservation issues and anything to do with the planet and beyond...

Yes, indeed, welcome. I have a bit of self-interest here - I'm going to southern Italy next year and will be very pleased to hear any words of wisdom you can give!

Thanks for all the welcome messages!

It looks a really interesting and informative site. At this rate I will never leave my computer

Yes Paul I will put some info about Italy on your thread. And as for Tenerife, I love the place in spite of its terrible environmental destruction, its scenery, and plants and creatures are so different from anywhere else although can only fly there unfortunately.

Not quite ... if you have a week to spare and more money than most, you can get to Tenerife by train and boat!
How to travel by train from London to Spain:* Madrid, Barcelona, Seville...
