Buried - Dead Rabbit: 10. Catch Me

Waiting for a verdict is weird, but it does eventually arrive. Afterwards, Dan and Lucy ask, is violence winning? Because it turns out, the dead animal threats are everywhere. In this final episode, a monster in plain sight, which the rest of us didn't know about. "Tweet tweet, tweet tweet."

Buried is the multi award-winning investigative podcast series digging into some of the most disturbing environmental stories in history. In this series, reporters Dan Ashby and Lucy Taylor follow a trail left after dozens of dead animals were left in villages in the British countryside. They team up with the wildlife presenter Chris Packham, whose own dead-animal death threats escalated into a car bomb outside his house. The dead animals lead them into uncovering a criminal underworld in the British countryside.
