Wildlife TV presenter Anneka Svenska has been visited by police and told to attend a "thinking skills" course after a complaint was made about a post she shared on social media. The case has drawn attention as another example of UK police devoting resources to investigating online speech, a practice that has become a source of ongoing public and political debate about how officers balance free expression against complaints of causing offence.

Svenska, known for her environmental and wildlife broadcasting work, said she was confronted by officers over the post and offered the course as a resolution rather than facing formal charges. Details of the exact wording of the post and the identity of the complainant were not fully specified, though the incident adds to a string of similar cases involving police contact over social media content that have prompted criticism of resources being spent on non-criminal online disputes.
