Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Rewilding The British Countryside ft Ben Goldsmith #198
Q: How do you view the role of conservation communities when considering ambitious reintroductions like beavers or burbot?
Ben discusses the tension between caution and ambition in conservation, advocating for trusting nature and pursuing landscape-scale restoration while acknowledging the need for informed, collaborative approaches across farming, fishing, and conservation groups.
Rewilding The British Countryside ft Ben Goldsmith #198
Q: What does a rewilded landscape look like on your farm, and what have you learned from that process?
The farm evolved from a conventional setup to a mosaic with beaver wetlands, native grasses, scrub, ponds, and longhorns, illustrating that less intensive management and natural succession can create rich biodiversity and a more resilient hydrology.
Rewilding The British Countryside ft Ben Goldsmith #198
Q: What sparked your interest in rewilding and led you to pursue it on your farm?
Ben describes a lifelong love of nature sparked by growing up near Richmond Park, the discovery of the term rewilding through George Monbiot's Feral, and a personal tragedy that intensified his commitment to transforming his land into a network of wetlands and wild habitats.
UK Wildlife Crime ft Paul Flint #191
Q: How does DNA play into prosecutions for peregrines?
DNA sampling from nests and birds helps prove relationships and origin, feeding into a national database that strengthens cases and deters illegal activity.
