Isobel Oldfield

Isobel has a Bachelor of Environmental Management from Massey University, New Zealand and is currently studying towards a Masters in International Nature Conservation (MINC) at Lincoln University, New Zealand. As part of the MINC programme Isobel has been lucky enough to spend a semester studying in Germany at the University of Göttingen and is currently completing a three month internship at the University of Stirling in Scotland. Isobel first developed a passion for New Zealand bats during an ecology class at Lincoln University and has decided to make them the subject of her master’s thesis. Interning at the University of Stirling has enabled Isobel to learn more about UK bats and if that was not enough she was excited to get involved with Bats without Borders and learn more about bats in southern Africa and has joined the team updating our species pages online.
