Rewilding should anticipate the effects of climate change and where possible act as a tool to mitigate impacts. Rewilding requires local engagement and ...
Pleistocene rewilding is the advocacy of the reintroduction of extant Pleistocene megafauna, or the close ecological equivalents of extinct megafauna. [1] It is an extension of the conservation practice of rewilding, which aims to restore functioning, self-sustaining ecosystems through practices that may include species reintroductions.

There are a variety of approaches to species reintroduction. The optimal strategy will depend on the biology of the organism. [4] The first matter to address when beginning a species reintroduction is whether to source individuals in situ, from wild populations, or ex situ, from captivity in a zoo or botanic garden, for example.
