Lucas, Elliot and Digby share four powerful stories from the frontlines of rewilding. First, Europe’s wolf resurgence where populations are up 58% in a decade. Then, a look at de-extinction as Colossal Biosciences claims to have recreated the dire wolf. In Italy, a village learns to live with bears, adapting to their wild neighbours. Finally, we explore why the UK halted eel exports to Russia and what it means for the future of this critically endangered and mysterious species.
