Naturalist tells the Radio Times of how his pets Itchy and Scratchy helped him cope with depression
Chris Packham has revealed he would like to be cremated when he dies and have his ashes mixed with those of his poodles before being scattered in a woodland.
The naturalist told the Radio Times that his love for his late dogs Itchy and Scratchy is in part due to them helping him through periods of depression – likening himself and the dogs to “three organisms umbilically linked” with a shared personality.
