Earlier today, we hosted a screening of Escape from Extinction Rewilding on Capitol Hill to engage members of congress in the critical work of wildlife rewilding. This transformative conservation strategy has the power to restore ecological balance and enhances biodiversity, while generating farther-reaching impacts, such as strengthening our local and global food systems, mitigating climate change, and offering significant socio-economic benefits to communities – but only when these efforts are pursued collaboratively and are grounded in science. Thank you to all who joined us today!
