Aka Derek Gow?

Ok, so money spinner?

Steve Carver @landethics.bsky.social · 2d

That was my understanding. So Knepp introduction is just a vanity project?

And white storks?

This is my go-to paper to point out that significant long-distance trade in wildlife is an ancient phenomenon- here macaws were traded from AD 700 from Meso into North America. Advocates of reintroductions of charismatic species based on sparse remains often conveniently overlook the role of trade.

@moorlandassoc.bsky.social I notice you blocked me on facebook for a similar post. Why I wonder?

I thought you might be interested in this as is relevant to objection to aims of NR3 - Nature Recovery Trees and Scrub. As you say it depends on location in respect to sensitive GNB areas, but as these maps/conclusions demonstrate native woodland regeneration and GNBs need not be mutually exclsuive.

Australia’s land-use change is steadily shrinking and fragmenting native habitat, especially along the east coast and in the north.

Even where land isn’t fully cleared, fragmentation leaves wildlife more vulnerable to fire, heat and collapse — outpacing conservation efforts.

Australia’s land-use squeeze

Mongabay recently launched the Australian Biodiversity Special Reporting Project, which will produce sustained, high-quality journalism on Australia’s unique wildlife, ecosystems, and the threats…

Hi Tom… it was very tongue in cheek post …I will have zero to do with Reform. Wouldn’t touch em with a barge pole as sh1t sticks!

Steve Carver @landethics.bsky.social · 15d

What??? I could advise #Reform too, but it wouldn't be on their nature policies but on the nature of their policies. eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com?url=https%3A...

A tale of two species

Why is the reintroduction of a native keystone species not permitted in England, but millions of non-native birds can be released with impunity?
