About SCOTLAND: The Big Picture

In order to meet the growing challenges of climate breakdown and biodiversity loss, we need to see The Big Picture. Rewilding reaches beyond simply protecting species or habitats within nature reserves or protected areas and instead, seeks to transform Scotland’s land and seas so that they work for nature, climate and people.

What is rewilding?

For us, rewilding is an evolving process of nature recovery that leads to restored ecosystem health, function and completeness.

Our view of rewilding is built around these principles:

• Providing the space and conditions to re-establish dynamic natural processes, so that they shape and govern Scotland’s land and seas.
• Recognising the critical role of all species – including missing native species – in sustaining functioning food webs and other ecological interactions.
• Nurturing nature recovery at different scales and accepting that approaches to rewilding can look and feel quite different and still offer valuable benefits.
• Improving connectivity across fragmented habitats to give species more freedom to roam, supporting biodiversity recovery and climate resilience.
• Helping communities to prosper in a diverse, nature-based economy that works in tandem with ecological recovery.
