The 38 pages that link to Rewilding, each with the reason it gives.

• BiodiversityRelated: Its goals raise questions about which historical conditions and ecological functions conservation should prioritize.

• HerbivoryRelated: Restored large herbivores can reshape vegetation and revive ecological processes.

• Ecological restorationRelated: Rewilding overlaps with restoration but places particular emphasis on autonomy and large-scale processes.

• Captive breedingRelated: Rewilding places released animals within a broader effort to restore ecological function.

• Wildlife conservationRelated: Rewilding overlaps with conservation but places special emphasis on restoring ecological autonomy.

• ForagingRelated: Restored ecosystems can reinstate natural food resources and foraging relationships.

• Keystone speciesRelated: Restoring a keystone species can help revive interactions and ecosystem processes.

• HerbivoreRelated: Reintroduced herbivores can restore grazing and browsing processes.

• Biodiversity conservationCompared with: Debates over rewilding test how much active intervention conservation should use.

• Forest restorationRelated: It overlaps with restoration but often gives greater emphasis to self-sustaining processes and wildness.

• Pleistocene megafaunaRelated: Some projects aim to recover ecological functions lost with extinct large animals.

• Marine conservationCompared with: Rewilding emphasizes ecological recovery, while marine conservation also includes active management and use regulation.

• WildernessRelated: It asks whether landscapes can regain wild processes after intensive human use.

• MegafaunaRelated: Some projects use large herbivores to restore ecological functions diminished by megafaunal losses.

• Island restorationRelated: Some island projects rebuild ecological processes by restoring lost native species as well as removing invaders.

• Restoration ecologyCompared with: Rewilding overlaps with restoration but can prioritize self-sustaining processes over a defined reference state.

• De-extinctionRelated: De-extinction proposals often present released proxies as agents of ecosystem restoration.

• Apex predatorRelated: The ecological and social outcomes of restoring large predators remain context-dependent.

• DefaunationCompared with: Rewilding seeks to reverse animal losses and restore ecological roles.

• Reintroduction biologyRelated: Some reintroduction projects form part of broader efforts to restore autonomous ecosystems.

• Ecological connectivityRelated: Rewilding often relies on connected landscapes that let species and processes spread.

• MegaherbivoreRelated: Reintroducing large herbivores can restore some processes lost through extirpation.

• Nature conservationRelated: Rewilding seeks to restore ecological interactions rather than manage every outcome directly.

• Nature reserveRelated: Some reserves use rewilding to restore habitats and ecological interactions.

• Snake conservationCompared with: Rewilding overlaps with snake recovery but emphasizes ecosystem-level restoration rather than species-specific management.

• BoviniRelated: Bison and other large Bovini can help restore grazing ecosystems.

• European bisonNarrower topic: Wisent releases are used to restore large-herbivore functions in European ecosystems.

• Garden designCompared with: It favors natural processes over tightly planned planting and ornamental composition.

• Nature (natural world)Related: It seeks to let natural processes shape recovering landscapes.

• AurochsRelated: Aurochs-like cattle are used in some projects to restore grazing functions.

• Grassland restorationCompared with: Rewilding may prioritize self-directed change, while grassland restoration can target a defined historic community.

• Historical ecologyCompared with: Historical ecology can challenge rewilding targets based on simplified ideas of a pristine past.

• Native speciesRelated: Rewilding may return native species to areas where they were locally lost.

• Aldabra giant tortoiseRelated: Introduced tortoises can act as ecological substitutes where native giant tortoises disappeared.

• Green anarchismRelated: It raises questions about human presence, land stewardship, and what ecological freedom means in practice.

• WildlifeCompared with: It seeks to restore wildlife and ecological functions rather than manage each population intensively.

• Ecosystem collapseBroader topic: Rewilding can rebuild ecological interactions where collapse has simplified communities.

• European fallow deerRelated: Fallow deer may be included in managed landscapes, though their introduced status affects decisions.
