Wildlife was everywhere throughout the jungle. (Lucy Shepherd/PA Real Life) +++ British woman, 29, braves deadly snakes and pumas to explore parts of

By Rikki Loftus, PA Real Life
A British explorer has become the first person to trek east to west across the Kanuku
Mountains one of the last remaining unexplored wildernesses on earth, deep in the
Amazon Rainforest.
Lucy Shepherd, 29, who is the youngest ever member of the Scientific Exploration Society
Council, spent two months trekking the jungle in Guyana, South America, braving deadl y
snakes, aggressive wild boar and lethal pumas to see places it is likely no other human has
ever been before.
Completing the gruelling trek entirely on foot, Lucy was joined by four indigenous men from
multiple Amerindian tribes on the journey and filmed her experiences for a documentary.
Lucy, who grew up in Suffolk and is now based in north London when she is not on
expeditions, said: Ive spent the last year preparing for this expedition by doing heat and
weight training.
"The physical and mental challenge cannot be underestimated, and it required every ounce
of my resilience.
But knowing I would be seeing parts of the Amazon that no other human has likely ever set
foot in was exhilarating and I couldnt wait to share the places I discovered.
There are no explorers in Lucy's family - her mum, Aysha, 67, is a retired doctor, and her dad,
Paul, also 67, a retired teacher - but Lucy has had a passion for being outdoors and exploring
since childhood.
She said: Growing up as an only child, I loved climbing trees and being outdoors. I always
had an adventurous streak.

Colombian paleontologist, Dr. Edwin Cadena, taking notes from one of the male specimens of Stupendemys geographicus during a fieldwork season in 2016. See National News story NNshell. The biggest turtle ever to have lived weighing more than a tonne with an eight foot long shell roamed modern-day Colombia 10 million years ago. Named Stupendemys geographicus and twice as big as the largest one today, it may even have weaponised its fabulously armoured carapace in fights to the death with male rivals over mates - or food. At the time the continent was a 'lost world' of bizarre oversized creatures - including enormous rats and alligators. Stupendemys was unearthed at an animal graveyard known as the La Venta archaeological site in the Tatacoa Desert of Colombia. *** Local Caption *** 30706428

NEWS - Paläontologen haben in Venezuela die Fossilien einer riesenhaften Schildkrötenart entdeckt
Venezuelan Palaeontologist Rodolfo Sánchez lies nest to a male carapace of the giant turtle Stupendemys geographicus, from Urumaco, Venezuela, found in 8 million years old deposits. See National News story NNshell. The biggest turtle ever to have lived weighing more than a tonne with an eight foot long shell roamed modern-day Colombia 10 million years ago. Named Stupendemys geographicus and twice as big as the largest one today, it may even have weaponised its fabulously armoured carapace in fights to the death with male rivals over mates - or food. At the time the continent was a 'lost world' of bizarre oversized creatures - including enormous rats and alligators. Stupendemys was unearthed at an animal graveyard known as the La Venta archaeological site in the Tatacoa Desert of Colombia. *** Local Caption *** 30706430

Burnt forest in Central Amazon, Brazil, 2016. See National News story NNamazon.The vital Amazon rainforests are failing to keep up with climate change, warns new research. A team of more than 100 scientists has assessed the impact of global warming on thousands of tree species across the Amazon to discover the winners and losers from 30 years of climate change. Their analysis found the effects of climate change are altering the rainforest’s composition of tree species - but not quickly enough to keep up with the changing environment.The team, led by University of Leeds in collaboration with more than 30 institutions around the world, used long-term records from more than a hundred plots as part of the Amazon Forest Inventory Network (RAINFOR) to track the lives of individual trees across the Amazon region. *** Local Caption *** 28477450
