Restoring the Caledonian Forest in Scotland. Alan Watson Featherstone. SERA Conference 2016

In pursuing a personal passion to restore the Caledonian Forests of Scotland, Alan Watson Featherstone developed an understanding of the key ecological principles needed to guide positive trophic cascades. By fencing remnant vegetation to reduce herbivory, ecological processes were reinstated to do the hard work of recovery. Rewilding projects are underway to complete ecosystem functionality. This is an inspirational video of volunteer enthusiasm making a difference.
This was the keynote address at the Society for Ecological Restoration Australasia (SERA) 2016 conference in Hamilton, New Zealand. The actual presentation was not filmed, but Alan was kind enough to repeat it so we could record it to share with a wider audience.
