Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The 'Godfather of Rewilding' with Alan Watson Featherstone
Q: What does rewilding look like on the ground in Glen Afric and in Scotland more broadly?
It involves fencing off areas to protect seedlings from deer, allowing natural regeneration, reintroducing beavers and ospreys, removing non-native trees, and rebuilding all levels of the ecosystem from vegetation to apex predators.
The 'Godfather of Rewilding' with Alan Watson Featherstone
Q: How did you first come to commit yourself to restoration, and what were the early challenges?
Featherstone explains that lack of money and land did not deter him; the crucial driver was a deep, personal call to respond to what the land was telling him, leading to the formation of Trees for Life and a focus on restoring Caledonian Forest starting with protection and habitat creation.
In Search of Simple Shelter with Kat Hill
Q: What inspired your endlings project and how does it relate to the Bothy discussion?
Endlings expand the conversation from species extinction to endings in broader contexts—places, crafts, and communities—asking what our values are when something ends and how care and conservation are distributed across living and non-living worlds.
In Search of Simple Shelter with Kat Hill
Q: Do you have a favorite story from your research?
There are many, but a memorable moment is the race of the first footers on New Year's, where competing groups crowd into a tiny space around the fire, captured in a delicate drawing in the Bothy book.
In Search of Simple Shelter with Kat Hill
Q: So what would you say is the definition of a Bothy?
A Bothy is a place of shelter in the Scottish mountains that is free, unlocked, and not bookable, offering a simple space for hikers to rest and connect with the landscape and with each other.
