Wilding for Conservation: An Exploration of Rewilding in Britain

The complete collection of articles from British WIldlife‘s acclaimed Wilding for Conservation series – an unflinching appraisal of the realities of rewilding in Britain.

Running from 2021 to 2025, the Wilding for Conservation series took a deep dive into the phenomenon that is rewilding, with special focus on its development in Britain and connection with alternative approaches to protecting and restoring biodiversity. Through 27 articles, the series scrutinised and celebrated all aspects of rewilding, from the truths behind the impacts of large carnivores to the options for restoring tree cover at scale.

We are now delighted to bring together all articles in a single e-book, Wilding for Conservation: An Exploration of Rewilding in Britain, including:

  • 27 thought-provoking articles, exploring all elements of rewilding in a British context
