  • The Wildlife Trusts: 100 years of nature conservation is a documentary film telling the story of The Wildlife Trusts. From its inception as the Society for the Promotion of Nature Reserves in 1912 under the leadership of Charles Rothschild, to the birth of the local conservation movement after WWII, through its dramatic growth in the 1960s to the present day.
    The film visits locations such as Skomer, Loch of the Lowes, Brockholes, Flamborough Head, Woodwalton Fen and Ballynahone Bog. It also uses archive footage from Trusts, the BBC and other sources. Interviewees include Sir David Attenborough, Prof Aubrey Manning, Simon King, Ted Smith, Stephanie Hilborne, Hilary Benn MP and trustees, staff and volunteers from around the Trusts. The film is narrated by the actor Sam West, directed by Sarah Pitt and produced by Environment Films.
    Many Wildlife Trusts are showing the full hour-long film at local 'our history' screenings.

    Interesting stories about nature. After all, it's incredibly beautiful, and it's getting smaller and smaller. That's what makes it so painful. Let's protect nature!

    I have seen this video so many times and it is so inspiring!! It is truly fabulous that 100 years ago people were concerned about the loss of habitat - And did something about it!! - Because they wanted to - Come and see the video on the big screen at Railworld/Wildlife Haven in Peterborough - Volunteers have spent 20 years creating habitat for our native species on a former power station coal yard - Because they wanted to! So many fabulous companies helped ... Thank you.

    Animal protection and conservation is all about preserving the habitat of wild animals.
    According to them all humans & animals have equal rights to live on planet Earth. - In other words, humans are supposed to put up with wild animal attacks, even sacrifice their life; quasi as compensation for the animal’s loss of habitat & food sources. They also see great value in preserving wild animal’s natural hunting and killing habits; i.e. the more gruesome they are, the more they enjoy them. For instance, they are delighted to watch how a hyena attacks a resting antelope, ripping it apart and devouring it alive or watch them biting into a newborn animal, during its birth etc. - In 2012, the Spanish King enjoyed the privilege to shoot a bull elephant and prides himself on his caveman mentality, because in Spain bullfighting spectacles are still highly respected as cultural heritage. Animal conservationists do not want us to see the truth about this kind of animal cruelty and prefer to display pictures of happy animals in huge animal reserves, in order to make us onlookers promote their caveman mentality.
    Hence, I truly think animal conservationist got it all wrong, because their battle against the natural evolution process can never be won! All species, whether human or animal have to adapt to changes in prevailing living conditions, whether they like it or not.
    My solution: Solution: Zoological gardens know how to manage wild animals. That offers future human generations animal history. - One could also say: the evolution of wild animals is unsustainable, since other, more progressive species (i.e. humans) force them to change their evolutionary path to adapt their lifestyle to prevailing circumstances. A small number of animals succeeded to adjust, yet most wild animals are unable to cope. Thus, the predominant specie (i.e. we humans) is entitled to treat dangerous, wild animals, like we treat dangerous human beings, in that we lock them up as to protect us and other animals from harm. That is why we should offer all dangerous animals refuge in veterinary managed animal parks, in which they are separated from other species, cared for and fed.

    They have a lot and they give a little. I suppose there are many reasons to maintain a fortune...
