"Just like clockwork, when feeding time arrives in the late morning at West
Blean and Thornden Woods Nature Reserve, a group of trees begins to rustle in
the distance.
Shortly afterwards, the enormous head of a bison, covered in a moss of
chocolate brown fur and two impressive curved horns, emerges from the forest.
Eventually, hoof by hoof, its entire hulking body emerges into the open. Then,
when all seems to be clear, the whole herd makes its move: three other adults
and four calves trot out.
“They are creatures of habit and have favorite spots they go to,” says Cristina
Juan, the reserve manager for a project known as Wilder Blean, looking on.
Here, in one of the largest areas of ancient woodland in the U.K., a pioneering
rewilding project is bringing back biodiversity to Britain amid an alarming,
long-term decline. And bison are at its center."
