Charlotte Smith hosts a debate about 'Rewilding' in Britain - the reintroduction of animal species, and flora and fauna, to a landscape. Could new forests, beavers, lynx and even wolves help to bring a balance back to our countryside?
In the debate, recorded at the Countryfile Live event at Blenheim Palace, Charlotte hears views from a panel of experts: George Monbiot, writer and environmental commentator; Mike Clarke, Chief Executive of the RSPB; John Davies, Deputy President of NFU Cymru; and Richard Cooke of Scottish Land and Estates.
Should we remove livestock from hillsides and reforest them to prevent flooding further downstream? Could wolves be safely introduced? What role can beavers play in managing the landscape? And how should we compensate farmers for managing their land with nature in mind?
