I'm almost certain this is the case. And in actual fact, this is probably the best scenario for the slow worms etc in his area, and for this (probably) fictitious class subjecting themselves to all manner of dangers as they go out at night alone or pick up adders by mistake.

I hate the fact he may be dishonest.

But I sort of hope he is.

it ought to be reasonably easy to find the contact details for ryde private school (if it exists of course) and write to them - however it seems extremly likely that no such project exists - why would a school need 10 slow worms , or indeed even one ? when surely a trip to a local wildlife centre would serve. It also seems highly unlikely that a biology teacher could be that ignorant of the law.

However there is little to be gained by hassling showboat king further - if he is telling the truth then we are haslling an innocent kid, while if he has lied about his identity and motives then the best way to deal with trolls is to ignore them.
