Ned Beauman
Writer Ned Beauman explores the world of the Devon beaver, in a series where writers imagine life as an animal of their choice.
In our world of dissolving distinctions, five contemporary writers imagine life as an animal of their choice and investigate the boundaries between animal and human - each with the help from different animal experts. In this edition, writer Ned Beauman explores the world of the Devon beaver.
In other essays in the series, Isabel Galleymore clings to the side of a rock pool as a limpet, Sarah Kosar at the edge of a London park is a soprano pipistrelle bat, Toby Litt is the brown hare at the outskirts of a wood and Belinda Zhawi imagines herself into the world of the southern African plains zebra.
Producers Kate Bland and Toby Withers.
