    Translocating two thousand giants across Africa with Donovan Jooste

    "There's no silver bullet. It's a combination of efforts and it's a moving target. We constantly have to be adaptive, we constantly have to try and get ahead of the game and looking at it at a population level and not at an individual level is really, really important for the long term success here."  African Parks made the astoundingly bold move of buying out a bankrupt white rhino farm in South Africa to rescue two thousand of these endangered giants.  Now they’re busy translocating them across parks and reserves in Africa, often to places which haven’t seen rhinos for generations. The logistical challenges are immense. This is one of the boldest rewilding initiatives in Africa, ever.  In the latest episode of Rewilding the World Ben Goldsmith talks with African Parks’ Don Jooste who is in charge of the project.  Ben Goldsmith is a British financier and rewilding enthusiast. Join him as he speaks to people from all over the world who champion nature and are helping to restore habitats and wildlife to some of the most nature depleted parts of our planet.

    The cougar comeback with Renee Seacor and Emily Carrollo

    "It's very important to remember - for the same reasons we bought back many of these other species like beaver, river otter, fisher, bald eagle - that all these species have a role ecologically in these ecosystems. And so the same questions should be asked for species like large carnivores to help restore those ecological interactions and ecosystem services." America’s apex predator is the cougar, or mountain lion. They’re thriving in the West, but were wiped out two centuries ago in the East, where talk of restoring them has simmered for decades. After spending time in New England during the summer of 2021 Ben Goldsmith became obsessed with this.  Working with Mighty Earth and a growing coalition of other groups, Ben is proud to be part of a growing campaign to reintroduce ‘catamounts’, as New Englanders called them. Join him in conversation with Renee Seacor from the Bring Catamounts Home campaign, and cougars expert from Panthera, Emily Carrollo. Ben Goldsmith is a British financier and rewilding enthusiast.

    Saving songbirds from slaughter in the Mediterranean with Lloyd Scott

    "The amount of times I've been and just for a brief moment you almost sort of lose track and forget ... and you're just looking at this marvel on a really good migration day and the number of birds... and it's absolutely incredible and then the next thing you know, all of a sudden, you'll hear the gunshots start." The massacre of migrating birds each spring and autumn around the Mediterranean is ecocide. It’s done mostly for fun, status and selfies; sometimes for delicacies. Nightingales and passerines of all kinds, turtle doves, kestrels, hawks, raptors and even storks and flamingos are gunned down or lured and trapped with glued branches and cruel snares.  One organisation, the Committee Against Bird Slaughter or CABS, is fighting this atrocity all over the Med. In this episode Ben Goldsmith is in conversation with Lloyd Scott about what they are doing to help save these birds.  Ben Goldsmith is a British financier and rewilding enthusiast.

    A bold vision to rewild South America with Deli Saavedra

    Fighting for America's largest blackwater swamp with Josh Marks

    "Myself and my colleagues were not fooled, we knew exactly what the were intending to do, and so we got the band back together and we rose up to build an army of activists and advocates to fight them over the last seven years." Last year, Ben Goldsmith was lucky enough to visit the great Okefenokee swamp in Georgia; the largest federally protected area east of the Mississippi. The place is pure magic, full of birds and fish, alligators and the singing of frogs; dark night skies like he'd rarely seen.

    The rewilding powerhouse of Europe with Wouter Helmer

    "If you give rivers more space to flood the lands, to bring sediment - sand, clay - they not only bring sediment, they also bring life!" In this episode of Rewilding the World, Ben Goldsmith interviews one of the most impactful architects of rewilding in Europe, Dutchman Wouter Helmer. Despite being the most densely populated, intensively farmed and heavily developed country in Europe, The Netherlands is a rewilding powerhouse.  Wouter's key insight is simply that rewilding offers the most effective way to protect communities from flooding which has blighted the Netherlands for centuries. As a result, the country is now threaded with fat, vibrant corridors of nature, teeming with wildlife. Ben Goldsmith is a British financier and rewilding enthusiast.

    Finding solace in nature with Dave Mountjoy

    "The animals are already existing in a mindful, non-thinking state and it's us who have to experience that moment where everything stops and you're just being, you're just experiencing in the most direct way the absolute beauty that the natural world contains." Like Ben Goldsmith, the latest guest on Rewilding the world, Dave Mountjoy, found deep solace in nature following an appalling family tragedy.  Nestled in the foothills of the Pyrenees, Dave wrote a book about the profound connection he developed with his herd of native cattle and with the landscape that sustains them.
