The radical rewilder The Times As seen on BBC's 'The One Show' This
authentic, impassioned manifesto-cum-memoir will hopefully have a
major impact on what is likely to be a long-running controversy.
The Spectator Gow reinvents what it means to be a guardian of the
countryside. the Guardian Gow has a fire in his belly. We need more
like him. BBC Wildlife Magazine Bringing Back the Beaver is
farmer-turned-ecologist Derek Gow's inspirational and often
riotously funny first-hand account of how the movement to rewild
beavers into the British landscape has become the single most
dramatic and subversive nature conservation act of the modern era.
Since the early 1990s - in the face of outright opposition from
government, landowning elites and even some conservation
professionals - Gow has imported, quarantined and assisted the
reestablishment of beavers in waterways across England and
Scotland. Alongside stories detailing the ups and downs of
rewilding beavers, Bringing Back the Beaver makes a passionate case
as to why the return of one of nature's great problem solvers will
be critical as part of a sustainable fix for the UK's growing
flooding problems, whilst ensuring the creation of essential
landscapes that enable the broadest spectrum of Britain's wildlife
to thrive.
