Rewilding: what is it, why does it merit our attention?

 


More about "rewilding", how we wuld do it, what it means: "Rewilding is comprehensive, often large-scale, conservation effort focused on restoring sustainable biodiversity and ecosystem health by protecting core wild/wilderness areas, providing connectivity between such areas, and protecting or reintroducing apex predators and highly interactive species (keystone species). The shorthand definition of Rewilding is the "3 C's"--conservation of Cores, Corridors, and Carnivores. The ultimate goal of rewilding efforts is to mitigate the species extinction crisis and restore healthy and sustainable ecosystem function in areas that require little or no human intervention or management." https://rewilding.org/what-is-rewilding/ Learn more: https://rewilding.org/ https://rewildingeurope.com/what-is-rewilding-2/
