Lundy Island, nestled in the Bristol Channel, has witnessed a remarkable resurgence in its seabird populations, with numbers soaring to over 40,000 – the highest recorded since the 1930s. This dramatic recovery comes two decades after the island was declared "rat-free," following a concerted conservation effort to eliminate the invasive predators.
Conservationists have revealed that species such as puffins, razorbills, and guillemots are thriving once more.
