I hope the UK will be more accepting of predators some time in the future. It’s the only way to balance an ecosystem. We have the wolf wars going on here in the US but there are lots of wolf advocates. We also have other predators, coyotes, lynx, cougars and bobcats that are helping to …

his is such an interesting project and a great example of using “waste” from one project to create something good. Salt marshes and mudflats are crucial to soo many species so it is great to see this type of projects pop up. The scale of this one is mind blowing Wallasea is a great example …
How This Degraded Land was Transformed into Thriving Wetlands Read More »
Brilliant concept to assign a CO2 value and apply it against land in the scope of the project. In the US we have vast areas of land owned by National Parks and the department of BLM (Bureau of Land Management) that our general population is lulled into a false sense of security. I am one …
Rewilding This Land Would Make This Much Every Year Read More »
My guess is that the logical sequence would be sectioning out land for rewilding. Then you rotate herbivores through the area, they rebuild the foundations. Along with beavers. After that, it’s time for the large predators MarkI have 30 years of experience and i started this website to see if i could try and share …
Always important to see some success stories in the environmental space. Water Voles are so super cute! Round balls of fluff with legs! It would be an enormous tragedy if we lost them. I’m so happy to hear they are making a comeback. MarkI have 30 years of experience and i started this website to …

However they have the ability to eat gorse and long grasses which are incredibly flammable. This animal however can only be found in a …
Don’t worry about not finding it, a lot of mushroom are extremely time sensitive. I love to forage and basically you get a very narrow time window for certain types of mushroom (maybe like a week) and a wide one for some others (we get the bay bolete for a month and a half). I …
Housing large reintroduced carnivores in large enclosures actually does seem like a pretty great intermediate step, it’d help to reinvigorate patches of the landscape and help acclimate people to their presence, while protecting the animals themselves from people. MarkI have 30 years of experience and i started this website to see if i could try …
Europe are so far ahead of us regarding rewilding. Unfortunately our national parks are a disgrace when it comes to biodiversity mainly due to overgrazing by the uneconomical woolly plague of sheep.
