Cambridge professor in biodiversity visits The Wilderness

What can other countries learn from rewilding in Denmark? That was the question that Bill Sutherland, a professor of nature conservation, brought with him to Vildmarken, where he interviewed us about our work on rewilding.

Very often, rewilding is practised quite differently in Denmark than in Spain. Across Europe, various approaches are being explored and different experiences are being gained, which helps to advance the field of rewilding.

It is therefore important and valuable to exchange experiences across national borders, so that we can compare, ask questions and view all rewilding projects within a broader context.

Visitor from University of Cambridge

Recently, we had the privilege of a visit by Bill Sutherland, a professor at the University of Cambridge. Bill conducts research into nature conservation. Through his work, he documents the latest research in the field of rewilding and shares it, amongst other things, on his Youtube channel.

Bill made visits to Molslaboratoriet, Saksfjed, Nørholm og Asnæs, and interview among others Anders Holm, Thor Hjarsen, Frederik Josefsen and Marianne Damholdt Bergin about our work on large herbivores and biodiversity.

I'm really impressed by all that Hempel is doing. And the fact that they're using evidence and rewilding principles means that you have areas that are showing really exciting promise.
