Tonight's repeat of Liz Bonnin's Wild Caribbean on BBC Two is I think the one with guest Trinidadian biologist Laura Baboolal in the segment where the T&T Field Naturalists' Club treks through the jungle looking for monkeys. I may have spent some time before I found the correct spelling of her name, while I could just have switched on the subtitles... She seemed like an interesting person, passionate about nature, as you can also see on her twitter feed (from which I've copied this photo). Anyway, sometimes I notice these random people on tv from the other side of the world, that I likely never will see again. If she ever gets famous Jane Goodall style, I have posted proof I noticed her before...

I liked that this nature trek and the scientists leading it were almost all women without any explanation given, just like we've seen so many science things with only men also without any explanation.

All episodes of this series are interesting though!
