6 million rewilding fund to help UK’s threatened species

The money will go towards improving habitats and bringing back important species for the wider natural environment.
Pine martens, water voles, European eels and spiny lobsters are among the UK’s threatened species The Wildlife Trusts are aiming to help with a new £6 million rewilding fund, the charity has said.

More than 40% of UK species are in decline while 15% are threatened with extinction, according to the latest State of Nature report.
Many species, particularly top predators such as lynxes and wolves, have been extinct here for centuries and this has knock-on effects for the wider ecosystem.

Known as keystone species, their hunting stops other animals from overbreeding and dominating their ecosystems.
