A chain of small “nature-rich hotspots” is being created to form a rewilding network across Scotland.
Estates, farms, crofts and community woodland sites are uniting as ‘stepping stones’ to connect natural habitats and help tackle the climate crisis.
It is envisaged the Northwoods Rewilding Network, launched by the charity Scotland: The Big Picture, will see small landholdings of 50-1,000 acres complement larger-scale rewilding sites by filling in the gaps and joining together a tapestry of smaller nature recovery sites and wildlife corridors.
