    Bison may have been extirpated from Spain, however extirpated is not extinct. It just means the local population has been wiped out, usually by humans.
    And about the fire issue, beavers can also be highly effective in altering the land in positive ways, creating ponds and slowing water flow as well as habitat improvement. The UK has been reintroducing them in small numbers.
    Fortunately for me I can drive for an hour to see North American Bison in a National Park. Do recommend staying a safe distance and doing photography with a 400mm lens or more.

    In the Netherlands they use Scottish Highlanders. However, it has also been discovered that there only needs to be a few animals per hectare. Too many animals also means damage to plants. Animals also eat selectively, animals also have preferred places to walk. Yes, it works with at least animals on a large surface area. Then the rare plants return.

      European Bison are much worse- they eradicate leafy tree sapplings (and quite a lot of species of conifers too), and are quite fond of killing small rodents and flightless birds for fun. The Byelavyezha/Białowieża Forrest is human-managed on the Belarussian side and let loose on the Polish side, which made the Polish side much less bio-diverse. The Spanish government seems to be in the right, and the private eco-activists are doing dumb stuff as usual.

      Main problem is the extinction of the aurock, better suited to the more temperate regions of Europe. An attempt to breed it back from other archaic bovines could not undo the loss, and the resulting 'hybrid' has too bad of a temper to be released safely.

      I know, but we in America usually call them bison and those who raise them here refer to them as bison, as well as the wild ones in Yellowstone. When I think of buffalo, the water buffalo in Africa come to mind, which look vastly different than the other two. Including beef and dairy cattle, they are all bovines. Dawn was trying to make a distinction between bison and buffalo and said they are different animals, which isn’t the case. Actually, I just was just correcting her and trying to avoid a long explanation. She is correct in that much of the photos were of American bison.

    I agree with this introduction but at the same time it needs predictors to also keep the balance.
    Trying to reverse human interaction will be very time consuming though and no one will want to give up the required acreage required to actually make a massive impact

    Here's the largest problem with relocating bison in to ANY AREA:
    They find one good spot with lots of water and food... Usually near a river. They eat and destroy the edges of the rivers and without natural predators to move them along they will erode riverbanks pretty drastically. Yellowstone is dealing with the issue currently and the Yellowstone River is getting destroyed because of it.

    This is an excellent video. Thank you for taking the time to make this for us to watch. I do have a question, though, every single thing said in this video was complementary to bison. And that’s for a good reason. But I’m always curious to know if there’s any downside to it. I become a little suspicious with videos that only show the upside to something, especially if it’s lots and lots of upside. Is there any downside to it? I would be interested to know only because nothing is perfect.

    The dung beetle is the source of the ancient Egyptian scarab. The dung beetle is seen as a renewal of life, the evolutionary recycler: (1) Improved soil structure: (2) Dung beetles burrow tunnels that carry nitrogen into the soil, allowing it to hold more water and support crops. (3) This also helps prevent runoff, which can create "dead zones" in nearby bodies of water.
    Improved nutrient cycling: (4)Dung beetles move nutrient-rich organic material to where plant roots can reach it, and where it can feed other soil organisms. (5) Increased pasture yields: Dung beetles incorporate organic matter into the soil, which increases its friability, aeration, and water-holding capacity. (6) Reduced pasture surface pollution: Dung beetles remove contaminated fececs from pasture surfaces. (7) Reduced animal diseases: Dung beetles suppress dung-dwelling human and livestock parasites and pathogens. (8) Reduced nitrogen loss in livestock feces: Dung beetles help reduce nitrogen loss in livestock feces.(9) Increased effective grazing: Dung beetles increase the biomass of forage for ranching systems.
    (10) Reduced insect pests: Dung beetles reduce populations of insect pests that breed in animal feces. (11) Decreased greenhouse gases: (12) Dung beetles help bury carbon and store it in the soil.(13) Improved water quality: Dung beetles can improve water quality by removing nutrients from runoff
    Human use of chemicals kills dung beetles along with various other insects, including the soft body insects necessary for birds, particularly song birds to feed their hatchlings. Fun Fact: lions and big cats do not see humans as food, however, will attack humans if perceived as a threat including roaming around in their territory--essentially their pantry and intruding on mating land. The more interesting studies show that human smell putrid to the big cats, probably should be eliminated. Given the average human diet most of us are pre-embalmed and that doesn't sound tasty.

    This idea is not new. They've been practicing 'rejuvenative agriculture' in Africa for some 30 years now. It is also being adopted by ranchers in North America, who have been practicing it for 10 years or more...some for the entirety of their ranch's lifespan. It's good to see Europe is finally doing this.

    The warming of the Earth does not automatically equate to increase dry conditions. We are in a inter-glacial period but the Earth is typically much warmer than today with far more CO2 content in the air and far more humid and green. Even Antarctica used to be covered with forests. The problem is not a warming Earth, the problem will be if it gets colder again (remember, we are in an inter-glacial period).
