Rewilding
De vernieuwende wetenschap van ecologisch herstelEen groeiende groep mensen houdt zich bezig met rewilding. Dit is een vernieuwende vorm van natuurherstel, waarbij ecologen zich bezighouden met het herstel van de verloren gegane interacties tussen dieren, planten en natuurlijke verstoringen, die de essentie vormen van bloeiende ecosystemen. In Rewilding beschrijven de twee belangrijkste wetenschappers op dit gebied, Paul Jepson en Cain Blythe, op een toegankelijke manier de ecologische en historische achtergronden, geïllustreerd door prachtige natuurhistorische beelden, gecombineerd met infographics en stroomdiagrammen. Ze beantwoorden tevens vragen over de rol van megafauna bij rewilding, beschrijven vier belangrijke projecten op dit gebied, waaronder die van de Oostvaarderplassen, geven aan hoe belangrijk het is om het publiek te betrekken en hoe dat kan en staan ze stil bij ethische aspecten van rewilding. Tenslotte doen ze tien voorspellingen voor een gerewilde planeet, waarin plaats is voor mens, en soorten als wilde paarden en runderen, wolven en bevers. De auteurs Paul Jepson is projectleider Natuurherstel bij Ecosulis Ltd en was tot voor kort directeur van de Masters-opleiding van Oxford University in biodiversiteit, natuurbehoud en natuurbeheer. Hij heeft veel gepubliceerd over rewilding-beleid en actiefilosofie, en is lid van de raad van toezicht van Rewilding Europe. Cain Blythe is algemeen directeur van Ecosulis Ltd en is gespecialiseerd in het herstel van habitats, met name door de toepassing van natuurlijke regeneratietechnieken, natuurherstel en het gebruik van technologie bij natuurbehoud. Momenteel draagt hij bij aan een aantal monitoringproeven met betrekking tot de reïntroductie van bevers in Engeland en Wales
