Episode 11: Golden Eagles, War Rewilding, Brazilian Macaws and Mexican Wolves

In this month's episode Lucas, Elliot and Digby hop between Europe, to North then South America. Starting with the news of an ambitious project to help golden eagles once again soar in the skies above England. The team then discuss a thought provoking recent paper, which suggests rewilding large areas of land can be an effective tool to bolster national security. Over then to Mexico, where the Mexican Wolf subspecies is returning to its ancestral home, with individuals coming from populations north of the border in the US. Finally, fly over to Rio De Janeiro, where the expansive Tijuca National Park, the worlds largest urban rainforest, is once again home to the Blue-and-yellow macaw, a locally extinct but hugely symbolic species for the beating heart of Brazil.

Episode 10: Lazarus Species, Kākāpō and Tower Mustard

Join Lucas, Elliot and Digby as they explore four extraordinary stories of innovation, rediscovery and wild recovery from across the globe. In New Zealand, they discuss the beloved kākāpō and uncover the smart science behind one of the world’s most ambitious bird conservation programmes. Then to California, where researchers are working to bring the rare white abalone back from the brink. Deep in West Papua, two remarkable ‘Lazarus species’, mammals once thought lost to the fossil record, are found alive in a humbling story about the mysteries nature still holds. Finally, back in London, Citizen Zoo’s tower mustard project is empowering volunteer citizen rewilders to grow this rare native plant at home before returning it to its former range across the capital.
