37 - From Principles to Practice - Part Two of the IUCN Guidelines on Rewilding

How important is ongoing monitoring in rewilding? Should we be aiming to preserve nature to an historical biodiversity target? And, how can humans be part of a rewilded world? In this episode of Rewilding in Action (which follows on from Episode 35), Maureen Howard continues her deep dive with Professor Steve Carver from the University of Leeds into the IUCN’s five rewilding guidelines, as well as what distinguishes passive rewilding from other types of rewilding. This episode contains the song of the European Robin (Erithacus rubecula) recorded by Paul Driver in Hertsfordshire, England, XC70124. Accessible at www.xeno-canto.org/70124.
