Susan Ball+FollowWildlife surprise: Bird nest found in rewilded yardFinding a bird’s nest hidden in your own front yard is a real sign that rewilding efforts are paying off! One homeowner, working to transform their grass into a wildlife-friendly space, discovered a junco nest tucked right in the overgrown grass. To protect the nest from construction crews, they quickly put up a sign and bought fencing. Rewilding with native plants not only brings unique beauty and less maintenance, but also supports local wildlife and pollinators. Have you tried making your yard more nature-friendly? What’s the coolest wildlife you’ve spotted at home? #Home #Rewilding #NativePlants180Share
awaters+FollowGiant Cows Are Back—But Why Now?Imagine taking a stroll and bumping into a cow the size of a small car! Denmark is bringing back a super-sized ancestor of modern cows, called the tauros, to help restore wild landscapes. These mega-cows will munch, stomp, and basically act as nature’s landscapers, making room for other wildlife. It’s like hiring a herd of eco-friendly groundskeepers to keep nature in balance—no lawnmower needed! #Business #Industry #rewilding554Share
megangibson+FollowDIY Rewilding: Cool or Catastrophe?People are taking conservation into their own hands with 'guerrilla rewilding'—think releasing animals or building secret sanctuaries without official approval. Sounds heroic, right? But experts warn it can backfire big time, causing more harm than good if science gets skipped. Turns out, restoring nature isn’t just about good intentions; it needs careful planning, teamwork, and a whole lot of know-how. Want to help wildlife? Team up with the pros instead of going rogue! #rewilding #conservation #wildlife #Science40Share
martinezlaura+FollowStorks Are Back & It’s Wild!White storks are making a comeback in the UK after centuries, and it’s not just about the birds—these giants are basically nature’s comeback kids! Conservationists have been reintroducing them since 2016, and now they’re nesting, raising chicks, and turning old farmland into wildlife hotspots. Their massive nests are attracting all sorts of birds and bugs, proving that when you fix up the land, the wildlife follows. Who knew storks could be such ecosystem influencers? #NatureRecovery #StorkWatch #Rewilding #Science390Share
davisjames+FollowElk Comeback in the UK?!Elk might be making a wild return to the UK after 3,000 years! Wildlife trusts just scored funding to see if these massive, ecosystem-shaping animals can roam the East Midlands again. Elk aren’t just cool to look at—they help keep nature in check by clearing overgrown plants and making space for other animals. With past rewilding wins (think beavers and butterflies), this could be a game-changer for local habitats. Would you want to spot elk in your backyard? #Rewilding #ElkReturn #Wildlife #Pets170Share
phillipsbrian+FollowSurprise Guests Under My Compost Bin!Lifted my compost bin and found a whole nest of baby snakes chilling underneath! 😳 They looked harmless, so I let them stay, but had to double-check with the internet just in case. Turns out, they're actually good for the garden! Who knew rewilding your yard could bring such wild surprises? Now I'm kinda loving the idea of a self-sustaining garden—less work, more nature, and bonus snake friends! Would you keep them or nope out? #GardenSurprise #BackyardWildlife #Rewilding #EcoFriendly #GardeningWin #Home60Share
