Wildlife expert Chris Packham says he fears for his life after an arson attack at his New Forest home.
In a video posted on Twitter, the 60-year-old anti-hunt campaigner said two masked men were caught setting fire to a car outside his gates in the early hours of Friday morning.
The Springwatch presenter has previously had dead animals left outside his house.
Hampshire Police appealed for help in catching the perpetrators.
A spokesperson said: ‘It was reported that a vehicle was on fire outside a property, which had subsequently spread to a surrounding gate and fence. Hampshire Fire and Rescue Service attended and extinguished the blaze. No arrests have been made.’
