In this second blog about Scotland's seals by Conservation Assistant Emma Marriott, we uncover the threats that seals are facing and learn what we can all do to help protect them.

Conservation Assistant Emma Marriott explores the differences between our two native seal species - Grey seals and Harbour seals - and dives into their behaviour and identification.

Our new Youth Ambassador, Udara Nagodavithana, reflects on her time spent on the incredible Small Isles, recounting what she learned, and the amazing wildlife and landscapes she saw along the way.

Research requires a whole lot of data, which is why scientists need your help to collect information on wildlife and habitats. We call this "citizen science", and there are a huge range of projects to choose from. Wherever you live and whatever your interests, there will certainly be a way for you to help monitor those species and habitats so that we can better understand and protect them. To find out more about citizen science and the variety of projects to get involved in, read this blog by conservation assistant Emma Marriott.
