What if you just leave it? was the UK's first podcast about rewilding and was started alongside a MA photography project into the subject - see www.whatifyoujustleaveit.info for more info. Since completing my MA, I have continued to take photos and interview people involved in rewilding, and I also work part time heading up a small charity called West Dorset Wilding - westdorsetwilding.org These podcasts are not paid and done for the love of it, so if anyone would like to 'buy me a coffee' as a treat, you can do that at buymeacoffee.com/samrose Thanks for listening and do share :)

Season 2, Episode 5: Purbeck special with David, Mark and then David again!

This episode combines audio from November 2021 and January 2023, made in the Purbeck Heaths National Nature Reserve in Dorset. Back in 2021 I interviewed David Brown and Mark Singleton about the natural process-led solutions that the National Trust and partners were adopting on the vast area of protected Heathland. The area is very important for biodiversity, but it has been a very highly 'managed' landscape for a long time. Drawing on principles from rewilding, the Trust are now adopting more natural process-led solutions for nature restoration at a landscape scale, including large herbivores and even thinking about Bison. The episode ends with an update from David in 2023, and it gives hope that it is possible to make these changes at scale, even in our busy and overpopulated land. Please do check out my website - whatifyoujustleaveit.info, and I do these podcasts for the love of it, so if you want to 'but me a coffee', please go to buymeacoffee.com/samrose Thanks for listening :)
