Rewilding Britain

Rewilding Britain is an organization founded in 2015 that aims to promote the rewilding of Great Britain.[1][2] It is a registered charity in England and Wales, and also in Scotland.[3][4]

It has called for the reintroduction of predators such as lynx and wolves which had previously been hunted to extinction.[5] Its proposals have been opposed by farmers.[2]
