The Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust (WTT) is holding a competition for budding TV presenters.
If you're interested in exciting other people excited about wildlife, download this script which explains all the entry criteria, and where to upload your entry, and video yourself delivering it in the style of your favourite wildlife presenter, from Bill Oddie or Nick Baker to David Bellamy or Mike Dilger.
The winner will get the chance to head up the WWT's Wildest hide and seek campaign, be a guest news presenter on Green TV, win a wetland pond, see Sir David Attenborough at a London Wetland Centre event in May, and take part in a special project as part of the International Year of Biodiversity.
The competition will be judged by a panel of TV presenters and two WWT researchers, who will take into account the number of hits your video receives on YouTube, how well it mimics your chosen presenter, and how inspiring it is.
