Over the last 25 years, Highland cattle have shaped this woodland in the #Caingorms . In some areas they’ve impacted the trees, in others we have rampant regeneration. Overall, they’ve created ecological complexity from what was a simplified landscape. #Northwoods

DEFRA concedes that licences for gamebird releases in protected areas were unlawful endsreport.com/article/186900… via @theENDSReport

Wildflower meadow last summer and same field this week after being sprayed with glyphosate. This reflects the present insatiable, ruthless demand for land and its uses. Small farmers and nature have become a casualty of an unsustainable farming system that has lost its values.

Restoring native woodland in landscapes grazed by cattle & deer can be challenging without the use of fencing. Across the #Northwoods Rewilding Network, we’re using seed islands – small enclosures protecting species such as aspen – to promote growth before the fence is removed.

Great fencing job lads.

No better visual metaphor for the attitude to nature from many around here.

Even though birds are already nesting let’s keep setting fire to our uplands for grouse shooting. What biodiversity and climate crisis?

There are now over 200 beavers living within Vienna's city limits. If this coexistence can happen in Vienna, then Why Not Scotland?

Can farmers and ecology get along? 🌱🐑
Fred from South Clunes Farm shares some
thoughts on that.

Restoring the natural interactions between wildlife and wetlands comes with opportunities. Watch 'The role of wildlife' (Creating #Riverwoods ) in full: youtu.be/JK-55MMPojg

Our #Northwoods land partners commit to a set of rewilding principles, such as exploring opportunities for recreation, education and employment within local communities. Comrie Croft is a shining example of how rewilding can benefit both nature and people. bit.ly/3NQmhyn
