Rewilding

Rewilding is an approach to conservation that allows ecosystems to restore themselves.

再野化是一种保护自然的方法，让生态系统自行恢复。

Rather than managing every detail, conservationists step back and let natural processes take over.

自然保护人士不再事无巨细地管理，而是退后一步，让自然过程接管。

In some projects, species that had disappeared from a region are deliberately reintroduced.

在一些项目中，曾从某个地区消失的物种会被有意重新引入。

Large animals such as wolves or beavers can transform an entire landscape.

狼或海狸之类的大型动物可以改变整个地貌。

Beavers, for example, build dams that create wetlands and reduce the risk of flooding.

例如，海狸筑坝，从而形成湿地并降低洪水风险。

Supporters argue that rewilding is both cheaper and more effective than traditional methods.

支持者认为，再野化比传统方法既便宜又有效。

Farmers, however, sometimes worry about predators threatening their livestock.

然而，农民有时会担心捕食动物威胁到他们的牲畜。

Successful projects therefore depend on cooperation with local communities.

因此，成功的项目有赖于与当地社区的合作。

When handled carefully, rewilding can benefit both people and wildlife.

如果处理得当，再野化对人类和野生动物都有益处。
