"In 1881, land here was set aside for a reserve forest," writes Sugato Mukherjee.

"In the decades that followed, however, many wrongs were committed, including a devastating decision to run a 1.6-kilometre railway track through the sanctuary, essentially dividing it in half.

"But the latest chapter is one of hope for both the gibbons and their forest-dwelling neighbours – thanks to rewilding."

One challenge all #bats face globally, and the biggest thing that we as individuals can help with, is #habitat loss.

“Habitat loss is impacting many different bat species across the world,” says Joe Nunez-Mino of the Bat Conservation Trust.

“Which is why creating habitats in our gardens or other green spaces is so vital.”

“The keeping of slow lorises as pets is having a devastating impact on wild populations, particularly as their natural is also under threat,” says Alan Knight, IAR Chief Executive.

“So it’s always extremely uplifting to see animals returning to the wild, where they will be given a second chance to live their lives as intended, far from disturbance and interference from human beings.”

“Most of us love and appreciate it for its beauty, but living in relation to land through ecosystem restoration, or harvesting creates a different appreciation and perspective,” says Sarah Jim.

“Once I started seeing the land for who it was and who it was trying to be, that’s when I realized the ivy was not letting the land be who it was meant to be.”

“One of the things that people kept saying to us over and over again is, ‘We really wish there was a Kijiji for native seeds, somewhere we can actually make trades.’ So that’s what we built.”

"Rather than just ripping out the species, Avery’s team has designed a clever solution: replacing non-native phragmites with wild rice. The plant’s Anishinaabemowin name, manoomin, means the good seed, and it is loaded with cultural and nutritional significance."

"Maintaining healthy populations of just nine key wild species (or groups of species) – including elephants and wolves, but also wildebeest, musk ox and bison, as well as marine fish, whales, sharks and sea otters – can play a vital role in controlling the carbon cycle on land and sea."

"Would younger who had never known a Mull without still see them as an unwelcome presence, imposed upon them by clueless citified worshipers?

"Or would they have gotten used to them, enjoyed the fruits of the they attract—up to £8-million (US $10-million) according to one estimate—and maybe even learned to love them a little bit?"

“We’ve already seen lots of the harmful impacts of waste from mussel farms on the seafloor,” says Jenny Hillman, a marine scientist at the University of Auckland in New Zealand.

“So, we’re really excited about what this research offers to support better practices in restoration—and in the industry.”

"Grazers can bring myriad benefits to landscapes. Bison can improve plant diversity in Midwest by cropping dominant grasses. Elephants boost storage in African by munching on less carbon-rich trees.

"But there’s another side to the coin. Their appetite for greenery, particularly when inflicted on already damaged or left untamed by predators, can wreak havoc."

"When the saplings grow to a height of about two or three feet, the women plant them along the embankment.

"Now they are ready to act as a green barricade, their intricate and knotty root systems reaching deep into the soil, strengthening the earthen embankments to absorb the shock of sudden tidal surges."

A new model of upland at Pentwyn is beginning; if viable vegetable production can be married to a rewilded land of birdsong and butterflies, it could prove influential across and beyond.

At the very least, it confounds the standard critique of rewilding.

“We wanted to say we’ve provided an opportunity for someone to access the land,” says Hitchcock, “and create something that should genuinely benefit local people.”

“It’s easy to understand that when people arrived on this landscape, that it was a landscape that was shaped and maintained by fire and that it was exquisitely beautiful,” White says.

“It’s easy to understand that traditional knowledge of should be integrated into fire management practices today, but, man, that’s hard to achieve.”
