Just to let anyone that knew Graham Lucas who was a keeper and then part of the education department at Whipsnade, until his retirement a couple of years ago, has sadly died after a short illness. Graham was the source of much of my Whipsnade history knowledge and until his retirement was responsible for giving the animal talks outside the enclosures as well as manning the information booth and doing outreach programs and running the Whipsnade volunteer program. Many of you may have met Graham if seeking information on a Whipsnade visit and he also acted as Whipsnade archivist and historian.
