"Between 2014 and 2023, Rewilding Europe and WWF Romania translocated nearly
100 European bison to Romania’s Țarcu Mountains – a part of the Southern
Carpathians rewilding landscape where wild bison had been absent for at least
250 years. Based on a genetic study carried out in 2022, the current population
of bison is estimated at around 180 individuals, with a range of more than 370
square kilometres. If it continues expanding at a similar rate, the population
is expected to number between 350 and 450 individuals by 2030.
With the free-roaming bison now thriving, rewilding in the Southern Carpathians
moved up a level in 2023, with Rewilding Romania team taking steps to expand
their efforts and impact across the landscape and beyond. The team’s broader
agenda now encompasses more than simply bison-related work, although the bison
remains a flagship species for rewilding efforts."
