5 Reintroduction And Rewilding Campaigns That Can Help To Combat Invasive Species

Описание: There are many different important reasons why reintroduce certain species, as they can help restore damaged ecosystems, they boost biodiversity, they can help to slow global warming, and they can help native species that are threatened with extinction.
One positive affect of reintroducing species that's not talked about very often, is the fact that they can help to control and irradicate invasive or introduced species.
When some predators become extinct in a certain area or ecosystem, it leaves a gaping hole which introduced species are happy to fill.
This often leads to invasive species completely taking over, but thankfully some animal reintroductions have helped to fix the damages that we have caused.
In today's video I will be focusing on current and proposed animal reintroductions that could help to control invasive and introduced species, and we'll start off with two of Europe's most adaptable large predators.
