is very hard to say, very difficult to find out about time on student info migrants the alternate useful life. the, as far as we know, is the only and habits of planet in all universe thought the time fast that you have life it supports or is on this right the since the 1970s. we have diminished of a 60 percent of all wild life, a natural habitats,
3:17 am
the the goals, and one and 7 c. she's now facing extinction. and many others in decline. the time has come to we address that filing the today, the united kingdom is one of the most nature to please these countries on our planet. but now is not the time to dispense as individuals and communities of paving the way towards each and the now is the time across these, like the
3:18 am
on the aisle of miles scotland change is in the the light tailed eagles, the case largest bed frame with a wing span of up to 8 feet. this magnificent bed was hunted to extinction in the u. k. and the 19th century was the time of victorians out shooting grouse and another game. the time when sheep were being bored into the highlands and they didn't want any predators around . so why until he goes to the top of the list to get rid of as the last name, whites out ego in the highlands. schultz and the chapman's in 1918 just shameful, really want to human beings are capable of doing that off to decades of hard
3:19 am
work and dedication that by that breeding david sexton and all those involved. it's been a lifelong lee. but as now the of to several found attempts, the reintroduction program gathered momentum in the 19 seventy's. and today that continued what has led to one of the most successful wildlife conservation projects in the building 10 the yeah. and no way from 75 to 85. and they were kept in avery's own room and said taffeta and then released. and that was the beginning of it already. that sounds like it all started the fees well,
3:20 am
but did not ask that piece to then from and despite to successfully introduction, it took 10 years until they saw the fast successful breeding attempt from a positive settlement on i was lucky enough to be here in 1985 working for the r as b b. when that 1st check sledge we were here was ness protection. people ready at that time it was always the bar in risk of a collective. and it was a collectors that totally finished the builds of a 100 years previously. i say it was amazing on us to be thought of that bit of conservation history. and how little tent on the edge of the lo, looking out. kyle: just need to use this little thought. we were the happiest people in the land, i think at that time. and that was the 1st check to fly in the u. k. skies for maybe 70 is. that was quite a moment the the descendants of that matriarchal ego
3:21 am
still living on now today in 2021 was a record to you for checks the highest number of checks i've ever known in my time . and reflects 20 checks this year, which is just a phenomenal result. and those checks take a lot of reading because when i hatch in mid april, may you know, they come out of an egg, sort of that sort of size. kind of a little bullet down that would sit in thomasville and in 10 weeks they going from back to fully grown eagles. the 8 foot wing span which is just phenomenal, right of drugs. and by the time they fly the nest, that's it. that's all the credit and they, they pretty much changes, but they didn't get any bigger. they were doc brown chocolate tab. and it's not until they reach maturity outside these old,
3:22 am
but they get that amazing tail blown bright yellow beep and not being white tail moles success story. and bringing these beds back from extinction shows the change can happen when individuals and communities come together. but even today, conservation comes next, remains a hot topic. one of the reasons why it to the was became extinct because of the does the conflict with lice stoke and there's no denying the eagles. i printed the tree birds, golden eagle on white though eagles are going to take some lambs here. but what's going to fall now is, is the exaggeration and the claims of losses, which go way beyond reality. that equals white deals in particular have now just become the number one thing to play light, because big scavengers. so they will come in and take something off the other
3:23 am
predators and stopped in the process. and if they say something like that, going on show that they'll come in and intervene and take the land. it might already be dead, it might be really dead. but either way, just it's the ego look at see and get slain. it's just an easy target. it's human kind and predators, you know, we, we tolerate them up to a point, but as soon as they interact in any way with what we want to do, we want rid of them. and that's the sorts of challenges which we face. and you want to stand it from the farm is in, across those point of view because the animals of their livelihood of the lead time to do this line ways through that to find ways of accommodating these bugs back in our lives. unknown least ways that we know that they respond
3:24 am
to things like diverse and the feeding journey put out. some alternative suits so slow them if they happen to be missed and they're learning like 3 or 4 fish a day and they will take that and leave everything else alone. but what is happening more and more now is actually a change in the landscape of the change in the way land is manage. the people are wanting to be more about because logical restoration. and that's their main focus. it's not about the stalking bounce shooting sheets, signing the welcome white to deals like once a month. so there's a definite new era approaching the despite misconceptions. white towed eagles shining, pushing phone, keeping other predators of pay, maintaining balance within the food chain. and for an isolated island community, like most of these magnificent birds,
3:25 am
who so generate surprising economic benefit bringing in as much as $5000000.00 pounds a year as a result of white tailed eco tourism. but i think in addition to the economic benefit, which is great and we need it, that is, those are just that was a mental health and wellbeing. the thing that they provide for people they give back pocket loads to the mountain. people are now coming to watson to, to see you then people up for today is that sometimes when they see an eagle in its natural habitat soaring in the sky. and that has as much was in my view as any pounds. and then economic study david has never come across and these best and counter plus staying among the 1980s
3:26 am
. i see my associated on a holiday here. tough. so this mess it the, across the law in my blanket decries speech to the whole let down the sort of the ridge and that was the trigger for me. there was no going back to david's and he began a lifelong career working for the world societies of the protection of but finally, becoming the malware protection officer in 2003 jump. he's still family committed to today. one of the things that gives me most pleasure at the moment is the fact that we're now able to do for england. well, no way did for us back in the seventy's, you know, nobody had a thriving population of want to the goes a night. the natured couple of 100 birds over the 3 releases now because i wasn't doing so well. we're helping projects who are releasing went to the eagles on the out of white. so now there are numbers of white towed eagles already soaring over
3:27 am
the south and west coast of india. a real source of pride for me that now is able to be thought of that project. increasing a we need to make room in our lives for these animals that right. so they should be here. you know we, we were the ones that got rid of them for no good reason. at the end of the day, it's what most people want in their lives. they want a rich a buyer. that's this countryside. i still get a huge kick out of watching these beds and i do it. so how's a we know it's part of the job. i need to know where they are and what they're doing and then secure thought i would was i would just do it because i loved doing it the i
3:28 am
came having the right good friend back in the eighty's. he's now passed away. but that's my connection to him. you know, i think about it all the time when i bought my girlfriend here, now my wife, you know, she loved mile and the eagles were part of that connection. my daughter's life growing up on mount eagles upon it, allied side of the whole connection speed went to davis. my life is expectedly intertwined and con, separate it sorry. yeah, of the and then the,
3:29 am
and sometimes we can look to native a help in more ways than one might imagine the around the world news is extreme rooms that come and come in place and its global temperatures continue to rise as much as 51 percent of the world's population could be at risk from severe flooding. but one ottoman may be able to help be raising visa. these semi classic mammals could play a significant role in person's nature, recovery and make the countryside more resilient to the impacts of climate change. beavers and not to engineers, by finding trees and building dams,
3:30 am
they can improve the quality of rivers. slowing down, cleaning and storing water. and these newly formed river habitats attracted diverse abundance of wild life. once native, of course, the whole of the u. k. fevers were hunted to extinction 400 years ago. for them meet the st guns. not successful attempts to bring them back in the wild. have led to the fest up in beaver re introduction program in plymouth. lead and supported by progressive thinking council. the 6 hex every waltney enclosure, sat in an ancient with the natures of surrounded by local housing states. when you're inside the enclosure, it doesn't fill out your entire toilet. so it's pretty wireless. it's basically a large community. nature is a why with a wildlife can link up trying to create
3:31 am
a more diverse how the top i'm for the locals and just nature in general. type estimate. again, walking approved from 5 years ago and became inspired to bring beaver's back to the area. after watching a film about re welding, i think we're at a point now as well, obviously to place it in this country compared to a lot of countries that i think we still have to do is to try and bring a lot of that back to wherever possible and practical about 3 years ago. we still applies together and so could we would need to be of as a, a logistics a, it was very difficult, but i think for most of the passions side of things we'll, we're ready how the heads in the right place. and we're already king to try and achieve that the of, to many consultations that passion and dedication painted in
3:32 am
november 2020 alone male visa was introduced into especially both enclosure the fast to inhabit the valley in over 400 years. few months. they said he was joined by a female when she was 1st released, she lived separately aside from the mail for the good 2 or 3 weeks. and then someone sold them swimming together on the pond. i'm not going to realize that they pads and they were living in the same thorough as she's definitely the more dominant in control. and he sort of just hooks up with what she wants to do and she'll start sticks off and she brought down the tray. she felt the majority of the down, so she saw of the ring leader and he's just lot, all those around everywhere you raising
3:33 am
fevers can way up to 38 kilograms and a substantially larger than badges pull there. they will comes in the far to feed on land. they have a water pre flare that ice nevada like tell for swimming, which makes them better suited to life. and the water is a common misconception that they really fish, but they don't eat fish that completely. i've ever us they basically go straight to the bulk of a tree late, they think of the account being by evans and 8th, which is basically really sugary strip that goes all the way through the woods. and then that also a large amount of vegetation. so that they brambles that lead funds and brock and you know, everything that you might find that will, that will feed on it. these is half
3:34 am
a life. and the recent arrivals attract to the lots of interest from both young and old, within the community. and there is no doubts about joe's feeling towards these animals, which is an tim, the nickname of these, a man off of that, just to be honest, that he may never sent him a lot of it just just barely. and i think that it's amazing to see an animal that can just basically do what you want to do for conservation and its own time. and it can completely shape an environment. you know, you can change the whole rid of the system. you can change a whole area of trees just from one animal that's taking channels and building dams and things that yeah, i think like right. and i think they should be protected and encouraged to spreads and controlled ways. the, the main reservation i saw was the welfare of the beavers. i think people worried
3:35 am
that, you know, you might get a few people coming down and breaking in and doing things that they shouldn't be there. and so it's something that we took on boards. that's why i've got the cameras out keeping an eye on it. we've got the ranking and be with patrols. steve has a large c not tunnel, which means the camera traps that chose that can observe the nighttime activities as well as monitoring the welfare around the clock, a time to just follow where that feed and signs. also, if it's of interest in a new, a new tree, they started no rain or obviously when they started building a down. and when is be the stakes that turn up in a new location. and i'll try them to somebody about getting on kind of a lot of good for is like golf. luckily was just for yourself. think you're not going be there in china and dissipate why they've got a job, or do you see a difference in the landscape of to any a few months of the spring away with the baby is one of the main names west to
3:36 am
potentially show that flooding can be reduced from that behaviors. if you imagine you go towards the cost that actually is the same all the way through in all cases and $600.00 make is at the same topography of water. and then they've not put them in front of it. you know, half of really fast area of water comes in a slows right down. when you stand back and look at both channels, you can see the notes in the difference between the channel and they have affected and the channel that happens affected the positive beams installed more times and slight was having a big problem with them trying. i'm glad they're both can be sold. should show it in a big storm event that those big dams should bounce out more to reduce the amount that flows through the side downstream. yet sometimes the johnny too, while the plan, it can take longer than expected. and then a crew twist of fate. a story took a very different time when
3:37 am
a severe storm hit bassetti, the torrential rain caused substantial damage to the enclosure. and those fevers escape the the males sort refuge nearby. sadly, the female died of the if these architects have been here just a little longer with more time to build them and slow to flow for to and the outcome could have been sorry. different jo and the team remain committed to the project. and a rebuilding the fences with a new strong good design say i hoping to welcome beavers back again in the near future. the what's the facing that
3:38 am
can see it would be so that the visit proved from other or thirty's, which would follow seat in areas at risk of floating around the weld of the restoring nature, back to its original state. is that some sort of as a land based concept? it's the oceans in which food life went to depend the the, you can islands comprise over 6000 islands and the water surrounding these crystal communities for many of age. and i don't, i la hudson is a research scientist and the roots is around the west coast of scotland and have
3:39 am
passed in the state of the hebrides is basically one of the most amazing places that we have not only in the u. k, but in europe. is huge, they seem to me by a diverse place and the reason is, so by an i base is because of the topography. so around can you get lots and lots of finding channels right next, very shallow areas comfortable . this is extremely nature rich. and so when that comes up to the surface and certain areas around the world that's causing the strength of falling. so that brings these looking nutrients pop up to the surface. and oxygen was like kind of like a centralized that those and on cultural land around to see if the opportunities to change side facing is life. and it's just a really,
3:40 am
really special thing, the feasible it is of which in su, plankton derived from the greek meaning wondering animals. this type of clinton can take means anything from microscopic organisms to law. just species like jelly, fish. this pretty much trying to set something magic whose sequence of events attracting other creatures to come and feed. so you get fish like micro hiring sprout song deals. some deals are actually the lifeline. if the hebrides, if you like, there really fast, which makes and that brings all the c birds recitations on the whales. and then the also brings the species i wish most closely with the task. and so the reaching is
3:41 am
a 40 feet and then it is the 2nd largest show can the ocean and they migrate to the shoes every year. making this area, one of the world's biggest spots, the feeding on the duplex, and they sell to up to 2000 tons of c will return our 3 that goes out seem like a giant says the these gen 2 creatures crew slowly along the ocean surface, which has in the past, made them an easy target for hunting. they're pretty easy to find that right at the surface, the very slow moving. and so it's very, very easy to use to helping. so it's liver, it contains an oil field, squalling oil. back in the day that used to be used as an energy source
3:42 am
specifically thankfully the hunting of the shocks was found and the u. k. and the 19 ninety's iowa thinks that the current population is still recovering from that expectation. and so the shocks a likely very, very long lift, so it takes them a long time to grow, to reach their actual maximum size. spending a small percentage of that time the surface means that we still know fabulous with about these allusive animals. much of that allow you framing the depths remains a mystery. even to those who study these magnificent giants of the sea, we know that the vast can shop comes back to walters every summer. i mean there they come back up to the surface to feed on the points and then we know that they
3:43 am
go back date and you know, they combine great poses and kilometers and they can go thousands of neat to speak as well. we don't exactly know what it is that they're doing down now. we've never signs for, for the nice thing. no one's actually ever seen about since i've given birth in the wilds. i'm only just starting to scratch the surface of what the boston talks. life is outside of the time that it comes back to us as well as to feed the understanding that breeding habits and migrate to repass ins could be key to protecting them from the invisible changes of climate change. for me, sees depleted feed sources and pollution are affecting the delicate balance of all marine ecosystems. shocks are keystone species, which basically means they played a super important role in the ecosystem. the marine ecosystem is basically
3:44 am
assignment oil machine. so all of the cogs have to be turning for the next part of the machine to work. and so when you see the boston chalks and you see, you know, large populations of in law's obligations, that means that this is that it symbolizes the hosting across system. if the shocks on there it may be, signifies that something is going wrong with the rest of the machine this season. so we're worrying an unexpected change throughout the see of hebrides to boston. shouts that normally with time, year on year, almost nowhere to be seen. there is no definitive explanation as to why this has happened, but it's a poignant reminder of how fragile these habitats trulia as i led over it given a pipe, she and her team got lucky on the late tool this afternoon. a cool site of abbas
3:45 am
ski shock and had one of the few encounters in the region that yeah, the i felt really nice because it's very rare for me to get see almost the end of august. and so you have not seen one the entire season. also it just shared joy, it signals to us that the shelves of silva and the ecosystem is still working, how it should, the
3:46 am
being next to an animal of that size is probably one of the most humbling experiences that you can possibly have. so it makes you feel quite swollen because it was kind of takes you out with yourself or the they are very, very focused on whether status. so she lying nicely still and slot and quiet the surface st. valley. no way through that. and so it's almost like open a door into, well, and you're just the very 1st of all the not only is a window into a world that you know, usually why not pause, but it's also kind of like
3:47 am
a door and, and just saying this is animals that have been successful for such a long time, waiting longer than humans have. and just kind of being and in some its presence is just so special the, it's almost mind blowing to think about the impact that we can have. we have such a huge influence on the natural itself. you know, i've been on the planet for almost 3 decades. so in my life time, we've seen an almost 71 percent decrease and the number of shocks across the world the majority of that is down to an over expectation from fishing. we are taking these ottomans iras news go system. and we offers in that decline. so the majority
3:48 am
of oceanic shock species are threatened by extinction, positive today of the iowa having lived all her life by the sea, diving beneath the waves has opened her eyes to this hidden wild from me. so many logical experience. and it's also kind of where i feel most myself when you're under the waves, as a kind of don't really get tell us to think about what else would have been kind of what's around the source. and really, really mindful expo. busy the you don't have, you know, emails coming in the background. you don't have a show in your back pocket when you just kind of switch off from all of that life
3:49 am
on lines and just become completely mixed in this other world. the i've got to some of the times of my life by being in the ocean in the regular basis . it's so important to me the you know, there's a reason why people who have been through to. busy or beans or municipal times auction, you seek out the whole thing for kind of physical and mental i'll sees are so worst protect them because we have habitats here that you don't find
3:50 am
anywhere else in the world. we have habitats here, the huge kaufman stores, the count force themselves. you know, that not just be to full but not just nice re grounds for juvenile fish. they're actually also stoned defensive, and they're also natural comp installs. these are all things that can benefit us, as well as you know, just 7, a function within, within the marine, the as a lot for tests and a lot that needs to be done. but we can stop by just showing people how, how much there is and, and you know, what we, what we actually started to start to lease the of the ecological restoration of a natural. well, it's a complex subject has to be there to the future and
3:51 am
restore what has been lost. we must continue to recognize the livelihood, shad consent, facing communities, both here and around the world. yet when we can find ways of working together, the outcome can often be as surprising as it is rewarding. the ground breaking project policy island england is living proof of how urban environments and the natural weld contrives together in 2008 fundings cross rel project excavated over 8000000 tons of us to make way for new underground fairway. deep beneath the capital lacking in partnership with the royal society for the protection of buds. 3000000

tons of the excavated a was relocated to help create an expensive coast to wetland. the most innovative project of this type in northern europe. by raising the land above sea level, they created a new into title area, salt marsh islands and mud flats. covering 115, hacked us as well as a network of creeks, say line lagoons and large areas of grazing most land, which is managed by sea food negatively with rising sea levels threatening the case coastline. these specialized areas, not any provide floods, protection that they have created, which fire diverse habitats benefits in place to wild life and the local community
