I live in South Africa I see the same issues of not seeing insects, birds, lizards, tortoises and frogs in gardens that we had growing up. Mass extinction in real time. Gardens are just lawns and invasive trees. I rewilded my garden with native plants and added a pond and am seeing insects, lizards and bats that I havent seen in 2 decades. Wish all humans could wake up and realise that we need to share this planet💔

Thought this was excellent up until the grazing was mentioned, so never meant to ever be a complete ecosystem with predators etc. Using it instead to social-wash animal ag and continuation of making ourselves the ( unnatural) predator. Not learning anything just copying the past, we are not predatory animals and by acting as if we are precludes the land of the natural & native predators. Oh well at least we have the Vegan Land Movement(VLM) !. 🌻✊🏽🌎

Thousands of years with herds moving through is how these lands evolved. Ruminants kept in tight bunches and moved daily mimics the herding pattern that existed for a millennia. Amazing things happen to the land over 2-3 years of this correct grazing - native plant species return making the land more drought resistant, manure and urine brings more beneficial bacteria and build topsoil, and the grasses they eat explode with growth as they are getting pruned every 90 days. See Alan Savory for more info.

The landscape needs grazers. Grazers are a necessary management aspect of a dynamic landscape. They stop the landscape reverting to dense woodland that would shut out a lot of species. Ideally you need apex predators to keep the grazers on the move to keep them from grazing any one area too much. Without those predators that becomes a part we have to play. We have to move grazers place to place and stop their numbers spiraling, and we have to do it respectfully.

This is incredible well done everyone, incredible to see how quick nature bounces back . I have re-wilded my garden from 2 plain grass gardens when i moved in last year, added lots of native hedging, wildflower meadow as my front garden and a pond and nature was thriving. this is great to see especially all the birds and mice.

Also if they could take some fat balls or even make some delicious suet treats and take them to the countryside to leave around for their fellow creatures that would be better than getting them to feast their egos in taking from the countryside.

Sorry to add a sour note, but the phrase "denuding the countryside" springs to mind. If the children were told to collect all the acorns count them and then leave two thirds of the acorns on the ground that would teach the children to think of the animals needing the food. I loathe the Sunday supplements telling their middle class readers to forage in the countryside. As if they haven't ravaged it all already!
@whitshane35112 ай бұрын
You have no idea if they talked about leaving acorns for foraging. I think it’s probably safe to give them the benefit of the doubt based on the rest of the video. Also, there are thousands of acorns and a gaggle of six year olds isn’t going to collect more than 100 at best. And of those 100, half of them are floaters and won’t grow a tree. I think it’s better to engage the kids as best you can at their age group. Describing this little project as, “denuding the countryside”, is inaccurate, alarmist and silly.

Love this project!! I live in Scotland, however, this continuing out-rolling of landscape restoration is a joy to behold no matter where it is carried out. It’s a veritable unfurling of nature’s rich tapestry and a renewed opportunity for wildlife to recover and thrive. Call it Rewilding or a reawakening, who cares…it is wholly a good thing and the right thing to do!! Let’s get it all joined up across the whole of the British Isles and throughout the entire globe!! ❤🥰❤️
