A vibrantly photographed introduction to the rewilding environmental movement shares examples from all over the world where endangered animals have been rehabilitated and returned to their natural habitats, and cities that have dedicated rooftops and disused land for nature gardens. Simultaneous. - Perseus Publishing
Rewilding is an important environmental movement to restore habitats to their natural state in order to support native species and make room for animals to move freely. In this comprehensive look at rewilding, the authors present examples from around the world where endangered animals have been rehabilitated and returned to their natural habitats. From pandas and peregrine falcons to jaguars and wolves, the story of these animals testifies to the fact that with good management, the extinction of species can be avoided. This book also relates how cities have begun to restore nature by planting everything from tiny rooftop gardens to huge parks on disused land. Written for 9 to 12-year olds, this book serves as a great resource for projects as well as a fascinating book to read or browse. - Perseus Publishing
