Runs the alternate useful life. The as far as we know is the only and habits youve done it in all universe thought that im fast that you have life. It supports that is on this right the since the 1970s. We have diminished of a 60 percent of all wild life. A not to have a chance, the illusion one and 7 see shes now facing extinction. And many others in decline. The time has come to we address that finding the today. The United Kingdom is one of the most nature depleted countries on our planet. But now hes not the time to dispense as individuals and communities, a paving the way towards the right to each and the now hes a time for speech like the on the aisle of miles scotland change is in the the white tailed eagles, the case, largest bed frame with a wing span of up to 8 feet. This magnificent bed was hunted to extinction in the u. K. And the 19th century is the time in victoria and out shooting gauss another gain the time when sheet, but being bought into the highlands and they didnt want any predators around. So why until he goes for the top of the list to get rid of the last name, whites out ego in the highlands, shots in the chapmans in 1918. Just shameful, really want to human beings are capable of doing but after decades of hard work and dedication that by that reading david sexton and all those involved its been a lifelong lady. But as one of the of to several found attempts, the Reintroduction Program gathered momentum in the 19 seventys. And today that continued work has led to one of the most successful Wildlife Conservation projects in the building 10 the yeah. And no way from 75 to 85. And they were kept in averys own room and said taffeta and then released. And that was the beginning of it already. That sounds like it all started the fees well, but did not ask that piece and then from and despite to successfully introduction, it took 10 years until they saw the fast successful breeding attempt from a positive settlement on i was lucky enough to be here in 1985 working for the r as b b. When that 1st check sledge we were here was ness protection. People ready at that time it was always the bar in risk of a collective. And it was a collect. Does that probably finish the builds of a 100 years previously . And so it was amazing on a to be part of that bit of conservation history in our tenants on the edge of the law. Looking out houses committees is all about. We were the happiest people in the land, i think at that time. And that was the 1st trip to fly in the u. K. Skies for over 70 is that was quite a moment. The, the descendants of that matriarchal ego still living on mount today. And 2021 was a record to you for checks the highest number of checks ive ever known in my time. And weve fledged 20 checks this year, which is just a phenomenal result. And those checks take a lot of reading because when they hatch in mid april they you know, they come out of an egg. So does that sort of size kind of a little bullet down that would sit in time if you had in 10 weeks that going from that to totally grabbing eagles. The 8 foot wing span, which is just phenomenal dates of drugs. And by the time they fly the nest, thats it. Thats all the credit. And they that pretty much changes, but they didnt get any bigger than what doc brown, top the tab and its not until they reach maturity at 5 years old, but they get that amazing tail blown bright yellow beep and not being white tail moles success story. And bringing these beds back from extinction shows that change can happen when individuals and communities come together. But even today, conservation conflicts remains a hot topic. One of the reasons why it to the was became extinct because of the to see conflict with livestock. And theres no denying the eagles, i printed 3 birds, golden eagle and white doug equals a. Going to take some lambs each year. But whats going to fall now is, is the exaggeration and the claims of losses, which go way beyond reality. That equals why teddy doesnt particular have now just become the number one thing to fly might have eagles big scavengers. So they will come in and take something off the other printer to this and started the process. And if they see Something Like that, going on, fill it out, theyll come in an individually and take the land. It might already be dead, it might be very dead. But either way, just its the ego look at see and gets claimed that just an easy target is human kind and predators, you know, we, we tolerate them up to a point. But as soon as they interact in any way with what we want to do, we want rid of them or, and thats the sort of challenge which we face. And you understand it from the, the farmers and across those point of view. Because the animals of their livelihood. But what were trying to do is find ways through that to find ways of accommodating these bugs back in our lives. And normally slowly, ways that we know that they respond to things like diversity feeding you and you have to put out some alternative suits. So small, everything happened to be nice to narrow down and talk like 3 or 4 fish a day and they will take that and leave Everything Else alone. But what is happening more and more now is actually a change in the landscape of new changes in the way land is manage. The people are wanting to see more about because logical restoration, and thats their main focus. Its not about the stalking gown, shooting sheets, ami a welcome, white toad eagles like one. So theres a definite new era approaching the despite misconceptions. Light towed eagles shining pools and phone keeping other predators of pay, maintaining balance within the food chain. And for an isolated island community, like most of these magnificent beds who say generate surprising economic benefit, bringing in as much as 5000000. 00 pounds a year as a result of white tailed eco tourism. But i think in addition to the economic benefit, which is great and we need it, it is also just that was a Mental Health and wellbeing. The thing that they provide for people they give back bucket loads to the mountain. People are now coming to watson to, to season people up for the tiers and sometimes when they see an eagle in its natural habitat soaring in the sky. And that has as much was in my view as any pounds. And then economic study. David has never forgotten his fasting counter, plus staying among the 1980s. Id see my associate on a holiday here to fill this mess it the nothing across the law. In my blank for the prize. Speech to the whole let down the sort up and over the ridge, and that was the trigger for me there was no going back to david and he began a lifelong career walk into the world societies, the protection of the finally becoming the Malware Protection officer. In 2003 jump, hes still finally committed to today. One of the things that gives me most pleasure at the moment is the fact that were now able to do for england. What no way did for us back in the seventys, you know, they had a thriving population applied to the goes and they donated a couple of 100 birds over the 3 release. Now because i was a doing so well, were helping projects who are releasing want to the eagles on the on of white. So now theyre all numbers of white vehicles already soaring over the south and west coast of india. Real surprised for me. That model is able to be part of that project, increasing a we need to make room in our lives for these animals that rightfully should be here. You know, we, we were the ones that got rid of them for no good reason. At the end of the day, its what most people want in their lives. They want a rich diverse countryside. The still get a huge kick out of watching these beds and i do it. So how was a we know its part of the job. I need to know where they are and what theyre doing and that theyre secure, stopped. I would also just do it because i loved doing it the i came having a very good friend back in the eightys. Hes now passed away. But thats my connection to him. You know, i think that it all the time when i bought my girlfriend here, now my wife, you know, she loved mile and the eagles are part of that connection. My daughters, theyve grown up on mount eagles and part of their lives. So the whole connection. So be this is why until davis my life hes expectedly intertwine and con, separate to sorry, yeah. The and then the, and sometimes we can look to native help in more ways than one might imagine the around the world news is extreme tombs and becoming commonplace. And its Global Temperatures continue to rise. As much as 51 percent of the worlds population could be at risk from severe flooding. But one animal may be able to help be raising visa. These semi aquatic mammals could play a significant role in persons nature, recovery and make the countryside more resilient to the impacts of Climate Change beavers and not to engineers. By finding trees and building dams, they can improve the quality of rivers. Slowing down, cleaning and storing water. And these newly formed move habitats attracted diverse abundance of wildlife. Once native, because the whole of the u. K. Fevers were hunted to extinction 400 years ago. For the meat, for the st. Guns spots successful attempts to bring them back in the wild have led to the fest up in beaver Reintroduction Program in plymouth. Lead and supported by progressive thinking council. The 6 hex of the walls enclosure sat in an ancient with the natures of surrounded by local housing states. When youre inside the enclosure, it doesnt fit like your in the area told it was pretty wild. Its basically a large community. Nature is a why with a wild life can link up trying to create a more diverse of the top and for the locals and just nature in general. J best to make again working approved from 5 years ago. And became inspired to bring b f. Its back to the area of to watching a film about re welding. I think were at a point now as well, obviously, to place it in this country compared to a lot of countries that i think we still have to do is to try and bring a lot of that back to wherever possible, unpractical. About 3 years ago, we still applies together and so could we really see it as a a logistics a was very difficult, but i think for most of the passions side of things well, were really how the heads in the right place. And were already king trying to achieve that. The of, to many consultations, the passion and dedication page on november 2020 alone male visa was introduced into, especially posing sasha, the fast to inhabit the valley. In over 400 years. Few months may sense. He was joined by a female when she was 1st released, she lived separately aside from the mail for the good 2 or 3 weeks. And then someone sold them swimming together on the pond. Im not going to realize that they pads and they were living in the same for shes definitely the more dominant and in control, and hes or just hooked up with what she wants to do and shell start sticks off and she brought down the tray. She felt the majority of the dog. So she saw of the ring leader and hes just like follows around everywhere. Erosion, fevers can way up to 38 kilograms, and a substantially larger than badges. Well, there they will comes in the far to feed on land. They have a water proof flare that eyes and a rather like tell for swimming, which makes them better suited to life and the so theres a common misconception that they really fish, but they dont eat fish. That completely. I bitterest a very basic level strip. The bulk of the tray analysis i think, will become the environs an 8th, which is basically really sugary strip that goes all the way through the woods. And then that also a large amount of vegetation, so that late brambles, out of funds, and brock and you know, everything that you might find that will, that will feed on that piece is past life. And the recent arrivals attracted a lot of interest from both young and old, within the community. And there is no doubts about joes feeling towards these animals, which is an tim, the nickname of these, a man off of that, just to be honest, that he may never sent them a lot of it just just barely. And i think that its amazing to see an animal that can just basically do what you want to do for conservation and its own time. And it can completely shape an environment. You know, you can change a whole rid of the system. You can change the whole area of trees just from one animal thats taking channels and building dams and things. So yeah, i think that great and i think they should be protected and encouraged to spreads and controlled ways. The, the main reservation i saw was the welfare of the beavers. I think people worried that, you know, you might get a few people coming down and breaking in and doing things that they shouldnt be there. And so its something that we took on boards. Thats why ive got the cameras out keeping an eye on it. Weve got the ranking and be with patrols. Davis allows the not tunnel, which means the camera traps that joe sets can observe the nighttime activities, as well as monitoring the welfare around the clock. For a time to just follow where that feed and signs also if its of interest in a new a new tree, they started no rain or obviously when they started building the down. And when is be the steaks that turn off in a new location. And ill try them to somebody about getting on kind of a lot of the good for is like golf. Luckily was just for yourself thinking like a beaver and trying to on despite why theyve got the job. Or do you see a difference in the landscape of to any a few months of the spring away with the baby is one of the main names west to potentially show that flooding can be reduced from that behaviors. If you imagine youve got a lot of cost, that actually is the same all the way through in all cases and 600. 00 make is at the same topography of water. And then theyve not put them in front of it. You know, half of really fast area of water comes in. They slows right down. When you stand back and look at both channels, you can see the notes in different between the channel than they have affected in the channel. They have an effect as the, as the beams install more times and slight was having a big problem with them trying. Im glad theyre both can be sold. Should show it in a big storm event that those big dams should bounce out more to reduce the amount that flows through the side downstream. Yet sometimes the johnny to a while the plan it can take longer than expected. And then a crew twist of fate. A story took a very different time when a severe storm hit bassetti, the torrential rain caused substantial damage to the enclosure. And those fevers escape the males, salt refuge nearby. Sadly, the female died of the if these architects have been here justin as longer with more time to build them and slow the flow for to and the outcome could have been very different. Joe and the team remain committed to the project and a rebuilding the fences with a new strong good design they are hoping to welcome beavers back again in the near future the whats the facing that you see it would be for the the visit proved from other or thirtys, which would follow seat in areas at risk of flossing around the world of the restoring nature back to its original state. Is that some sort of as a land base concept . Yes, its the oceans in which to life when asked depend the, the, you can islands comprise of a 6000 islands and the war to surrounding these coastal communities for many ways. And i dont, i, the hudson is a Research Scientist and the works is around the west coast cutting in and have pass in the state of the hebrides is basically one of the most amazing places that we have not only in the u. K. But in, in europe, as soon as you mentioned to me by the best place. And the reason is, so this is because of the topography, so around and you get lots and lots of finding channels right next. The very shallow areas comfortable. This is extremely rich, and so when that comes up to the surface in certain areas around the world thats causing the trends of falling. So that brings these looking nutrients up to the surface and the ax almost like kind of like a effect. Why is that those and on Cultural Land around the city of properties in cash to change. So i basic of life and its just a really, really special thing. The feasible is of which is you think, to derived from the greek meaning wondering animals. This type of clinton changed anything from microscopic organisms to largest species like jelly, fish. This pretty much trying to set something magical sequence of events, attracting other creatures to come and feed. See that fish like micro hiring sprout sun deals, sun hills or oxy, the lifeline if the hebrides, if you like, there really not much space and that brings all the see birds recitations of the whales and dolphins and then also brings the species i went close closely with the, the asking, so the reaching is a 40 feet and then it is the 2nd largest show can the ocean and they migrate to the shows every year, making this area one of the, well, its biggest hotspots, the speeding on the do, clinton, they sell top to 2000 tons of sea water, an hour 3 that goes out seem like a giant says the these gen 2 creatures crew slowly along the Ocean Surface which has in the past made them an easy target for hunting. Theyre pretty easy to find that right at the surface, the very slow moving. And so its very, very easy to use to helping screenshot it deliver it contains an oil field, squalling oil back in the day that used to be used as an Energy Source oil long specifically. Thankfully the hunting of the shocks was found in the u. K. In the 19 ninetys, iowa thinks that the Current Population is still recovering from that expectation. And so the shocks a likely very, very long lived. So it takes them a long time to grow, to reach their actual max in size. Spending a small percentage of that time at the surface means that we still know very little about these elusive animals much of value framing. The depths remains a mystery. Even to those who study these magnificent giants of the sea, we know that the basking shot comes back to walters every summer. And we know they come back up to the surface to feed on the points. And then we know that they go by the dates and you know, they combine great poses and kilometers and they can go thousands of neat to steep as well. We dont exactly know what it is that they during dont know weve never signed the nice thing. No ones actually ever seen about since ive given birth in the wilds. Im only just starting to scratch the surface of what the boston talks. Life is outside of the time that it comes back to us as well as to feed. The understanding that breeding habits to migrate to repass ins could be key to protecting them from the invisible changes of Climate Change. For me, sees depleted speech sources and pollution are affecting the delicate balance of all marine ecosystems. Shocks are keystone species, which basically means they played a super Important Role in the ecosystem. The marine ecosystem is basically assignment oil machine. So all of the cocks have to be turning for the next part of the machine to work. And so when you see the boston chalks and you see, you know, large populations of in laws obligations that means that this is that it symbolizes the housing car system. If the shocks on there it may be, signifies that something is going wrong with the rest of the machine this season. So were worrying an unexpected change throughout the sea of hebrides. The boston shouts that normally return year on year. Almost nowhere to be seen. There is no definitive explanation as to why this has happened, but its a poignant reminder of how fragile these habitats trulia. As i led over it given a pipe, she and a team got lucky. On the late tool this afternoon, they caught sight of abbas ski shock and had one of the few encounters in the region that yeah, the and i felt really nice because its very rare for me to get see almost the end of august and to have not seen one the entire season also it just shared joy. It signals to us that the shops of silva and the ecosystem is still working, how it should, the being next to an animal of that size is probably one of the most humbling experiences that you can possibly have. So it makes me feel quite swollen. So i guess it was kind of takes you out with yourself or then the they are very, very focused on where the status so she lying nicely. Busy and slot and quiet the surface st. Valley new way through that. And so its almost like open the door into a secret. Well. And youre just a very interesting concept. The not only is a window into a world that you know, usually why not pause, but its also kind of like a door and balance here and just saying this is animals that have been successful for such a long time waiting longer and then humans have and just kind of being an instance of presence is just so special the, its almost mind blowing to think about the impact that we can have. We have such, its a huge influence on the Natural World itself. You know, ive seen on the planet for almost 3 decades today. And in my life time weve seen an almost 71 percent decrease and the number of shocks across the world the majority of that is down to an over expectation from fishing. We are taking these ottomans iras news, go system, and we offers, and that decline. So the majority of oceanic shock species are threatened by extinction positives today of the iowa having lived all her life by the sea, diving beneath the waves has opened her eyes to this hidden weld from me. So many logical experience. And its also kind of where i feel most myself when youre under the waves, as a kind of dont really get tell us to think about what else would have been kind of whats around in the search. And really, really mindful expo. Busy the you dont have, you know, emails coming in the background. You dont have a show in your back pocket. Or you just kind of switch off from all of that life on lines and just become completely messed in this other world. The ive got to some of the times of my life by being in the ocean in a regular basis. Its so important to me the you know, theres a reason why people have been through. Busy or beans or me, difficult times auction, you know, see, comfortable saying, fair kind of physical and mental ill sees are so worst protect them because we have habitats here that you dont find anywhere else in the world. We have habitats here, the huge kaufman stores, the co force themselves. You know that not just be to full but not just and this re grounds for juvenile fish. Theyre actually also stoned defensive. And theyre also natural comp in store. These are all things that can benefit us as well as, you know, just 7, a function within, within the marine, the, theres a lot for tests and a lot that needs to be done. But we can stop by just showing people how, how much there is and, and you know, what we, we actually started to start to lease the of the ecological restoration of a natural. Well, its a complex subject. Has to be there to the future and restore what has been lost. We must continue to recognize the livelihood shad consent, facing communities, both here and around the world. Yet when we can find ways of working together, the outcome can often be as surprising as it is rewarding. The Ground Breaking project policy island england is living proof of how urban environments and the natural weld can trying to gather the in 2008 fundings across around project. Excavated over 8000000 tons of us to make way for us new, underground road way. Deep beneath the capital lacking in partnership with the Royal Society for the protection of buds. 3000000 tons of the excavated a was relocated to help create an expensive coast to wetland. The most innovative project of this type in northern europe. By raising the land above sea level, they created a new into title area, salt marsh islands and much slots. Covering 115, hacked us as well as a network of creeks, say line looking, and large areas of grazing most land, which is managed by c 4 legs with rising sea levels threatening the case coastline. These specialized areas, not any provide floods, protection that they have created, which fire diverse habitats benefiting those to wild life and the local community. The policy island is now home again to large populations of native to migrate, to reboot and has become a conservation area. Internationally, complaints in the goals and tons located in great numbers. As to over wintering, wages and wild file in the summer months, nesting bows like the opposite ones on the brink of extinction in the u. K. Now the rise in this protected haven, the cabin ton, is one of the most successful consultation storms in recent years. With a distinctive up 10 feet of a 6 feet by sweeping the bills from side to side. Thats a ways in the muddy booster. And searching for stations im going to buzz and we pass the duration of the breeding season. And the mating ritual is renowned for its elegance, the the elegant and ballistic. They may be these beds that full so nice of vigorously defending that territory. The despised c behavior is particularly noticeable around the same time when they have eggs and young checks to protect the within hours of hatching. These isnt fluffy checks, able to feed themselves under the watch, a lot of money and but it takes several weeks until that for the flex the salt most just like these. No, any support married wild life. They also provide 1000000000 pounds worth of coastal flood defense is around the u. K. The, the success of this project seems that we can find solutions beneficial to both industrial natural environments. The sometimes we just need to think in new refreshing the project. So 9800000000 miles to feed by 2050 the challenge of meeting those needs plus presenting on natural, well, hasnt, hasnt been great to the, thankfully, some people are finding solutions. James james folk staves grew up on an apple fund in 9. No shops here, the desire to investigate Sustainable Food production, met him to return to his funding rates. That this time it was at quick culture. So when people asked me what i do, i usually say, like pricing cymbalta. When a local muscle phone came up to san including, james found himself with the cussing edge of sustainable foaming people talk about sustainable. It seems a bit of a kind of password and, and kind of trying to get behind what, what does sustainable mean . And for me its, its how do you produce this pricing that we will need, have a from that you can increase the size of it, you know, kind of, lets scale it so that you can produce more and more. But without having a negative effect on the environment, the the hello and welcome to another edition of the 77 percent. We investigate the phenomenon of faith process to use god. Read on the gospel to money for leads and the next flights vulnerable people. Look at house from past as a finding sneaky ways of an invasion themselves. The 77 percent 13 who is behind anonymous collective curse that call themselves or just the person is it . I mean, you look at anything, what rogers do by you be surprised or delusions of grandeur. I mean, we came by the early spring, pretty convinced we were all gods, the team 70 d w. The guys, hes got issues with a lot say well crazy. The, this is due to the news live from berlin, world leader step up, the pressure on russia. The new cranes president below them is zaleski, joins the g. 7 summit in japan, the biggest industrialized democracies urge china to help and moscows war also coming up, floods ravaged, northern italy, tens of thousands are evacuated as authorities
