Показать описание
The UK’s first bison rangers were surprised to be greeted by a calf when carrying out checks on a herd of bison that form part of the Wilder Blean Project, a unique rewilding project in south-east England. In the wild, bison often conceal their pregnancies to avoid being targeted by predators.

The calf was born to one of three European bison that were released into ancient woodland near Canterbury in south-east England earlier this year with the aim to explore the potential benefits such large animals can have on woodland ecosystems.
