DOI: 10.1016/j.theriogenology.2018.12.016
Abstract: The European bisons are the largest mammals of Europe that are still in danger of extinction. The species conservation is associated with their continuous reproduction, and bisons are characterized by the well-pronounced seasonality of reproductive… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/rec.12661
Abstract: Trophic rewilding is the introduction of species to restore top–down trophic interactions and associated trophic cascades to promote self-regulating biodiverse ecosystems. A core example of trophic rewilding is the restoration of large mammalian grazer communities… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0277456
Abstract: In 1919, the European bison population became extinct in the wild. The rescue of the lowland subspecies and the whole species was achieved mainly thanks to individuals from the Białowieża Forest (Polish-Belarusian border). There are… read more here.
