The whole thread of papers (core ones per @noguesbravo.bsky.social below) is a really interesting and useful set of insights into the promises and perils of rewilding. I introduced discussion on the series in my rewilding class - next year, I'm doing a whole class on just this set of papers.
Can rewilding save the planet? I gave my answer on BBC Radio's The Inquiry — and so did some of my colleagues. Tune in and see if you agree.
