Wytham Woods - The Laboratory with Leaves

This ongoing series offers a stunning behind-the-scenes insight into the most studied piece of Woodland on earth.

Wytham Woods is its own secret world, and in these episodes we meet the brilliant minds (and great characters), who come together amongst the greenery in the name of cutting-edge research.

From the birds to the grasses, from the trees to the badgers, from the voles to the insects; almost everything in this beautiful bastion of English countryside has come under the microscope – contributing to decades of cutting-edge scientific research at Oxford University. Wytham truly is the Laboratory with Leaves.
