Wow! Beautifully insightful. And the prose was terrific too. What a line to end the video with: "The silent spring could be followed by a wild summer."
So your telling me the largest land mammal which is the Elephant is only so big, because there survivors from a time where all animals where that size?
There were other mammoth species e.g Colombian mammoth and steppe mammoth that are over twice the size of modern African elephants, and other species of giant herbivores e.g Elasmotherium that reached the size of African elephants
@riaz islam 35 that's not true, elephants were and are larger tham ground sloths and woolly mammoths we between Loxodonta africana and Elephas maximus in size.
@@paxsinica5202 also not true, no mammoth has ever been twice the size of a African bush elephant. The Columbian mammoth was the closest in pleistocene and was only about the same size as an elephant today.
No words can describe how grateful this generation -specially youngsters- to TED-ED videos. Great learning tool. Thank you TED-ED doe this powerful, well presented tool.
Beautiful animation and narration. I am grateful for these TED-Ed videos, we are fortunate to live in a time with such accessible and engaging content!
I absolutely love the ideas behind rewilding! Some current projects I find particularly interesting are the American Pleistocene Park (which is only "talks" now), Siberian Pleistocene Park, and Oostenvarsdersplassen; rather than making humans a "fourth wheel" to the microbes, flora, and fauna it gives us a chance to partake in the sculpting the land and making us part of nature rather than metallic and plastic beings that spy on and exhaust the wilderness. I would love to be able to partake in making a Serengeti with elephants, bison, and other megafauna.
While I am a great supporter of rewilding as well, I wouldn't use Oostenvarsdersplassen as a great example of it. While many creatures were added to the wilderness, they forgot one very important detail: predators. Without wolves, bears, and lynx to control the herbivore population, the prey ended up limiting the amount of food available. This led to the death of almost all herbivores in the reserve. So, while rewilding is a great solution, we must treat it with great care and research.
This was wonderful! But one thing could have been better: the sound department could have figured out their volume level. It sure would have been nice if we didn't have to turn up our volume all the way up... But otherwise, splendid job folks!
We can also introduce species related to those that left vacant niches. For instance we could introduce African cheetahs to hunt pronghorn, elephants in place of mammoths and mastodon to cultivate the land and perhaps even lions to replace the big cats that used to live here.
I thought you still drink a pint of beer etc. I do know some Brits and they all use pounds, In and ft, but AFAIK, they don't go crazy on derived values like PSI etc. Moreover, I haven't read any novel of a native English speaker that used SI units. At least I can't remember any. Still, it's good to hear, that at least here, we can slowly unite (BREXIT cough cough).
There has also been consideration of releasing African Cheetahs where Prong Horns live to act as their predator. Sometimes, you don't need to clone for something like that. If an already existing animal can fill a certain role perfectly in the same environment, then they can fit that role.
I saw something about this on NOVA. It talked about it in more detail and about other reintroductions along with some of the controversy some humans might have.
It is really a video gives hope, especially when first learning after 2020. The year not only the pandemic, and also all medias tried to deprive hope from you.
More one eats, the less number of this species. The food chain requires the never-ending of cycling. When you don`t get eaten, or go back to the soil, it`s out of the cycle.
Well when you are wearing pelts for clothing and being slaughtered by giant creatures, you tend to not want to work so cooperatively with those giant creatures.
It's worth noting that Chalk Downland habitat harbours some of the greatest biodiversity found in the world, often described as European rainforest. Up to 40 species of plant in a single square metre, which cascade benefits to other fauna. The UK itself has around 50% of the worlds Chalk Grasslands. Since the continuous settlement of humans in the UK, the vast swathes of Chalk Grasslands present for most of this time, were created and maintained as a man-made, waste product of people farming the land extensively with sheep. Sheep were introduced to the UK by humans and their grazing behaviours, as an alpine grazing animal, created an artificial alpine environment for species rich Chalk Downland.
There is another man who gave a talk on how grazing herds were vital for the health of grasslands. When you get rid of the antelope and buffalo the prairies and savannas deteriorate and erode. Herds of domestic cattle in grazing through the land can actually restore it, in the absence of wild herds.
I Read this guy in the '90's -- what an amazing guy....or an amazing thing, someone with their head screwed on right, fixed to his heart -- a heart, even. Good on you, George. Like i was gonna say somewhere, I hope Corbyn pays attention to you. I hope he retains you. I doubt he's any Bernie Sanders level, but he seems good, so should like you, cut of your jib, i ment
what r u sayin dat we aint civilized just cuz we dont use ur stupid metrics?! aint nobody got the time fer no god dam metrics over here in murica u probably r some idiot oboma fan lemme tell you ima keep my miles and pounds til i die cuz thats what my forefathers died fer MAH FREEDOM!!! i couldn't resist, it's so sad that most people who resist changing are completely ignorant to how much easier the metric system is. keeping the clunky old system is some of the worst examples of lazy and ignorant that exists.
Rest of the civilized world? The is is civilized it's the most civilized smartest richest powerful country on earth without the us u wouldn't be on RUclips on ur computer on the internet nor safe in ur European country without us the only reason right now Russia isn't invading u guys is cause they know we'll fight back with u and they can win against u guys but their way out matched compared to us
Cool concept, and I'm glad that it made the specification that rewilding shouldn't be an excuse to push people off of their own land. It can happen gradually from voluntary movements away from farms over time. Of course, this video implies that these wildlands are a sort of beautiful paradise, when in reality, you wouldn't be able to actually see most of the effects of it, since it would be too dangerous to go into completely untamed wilds, at least not without weaponry. But if people started shooting their way past the bears, wolves, and other dangerous animals in order to see what they wanted, the wildlands would fall apart again. So, really, the video is proposing setting aside land that is off-limits to humans. Could be a really good idea with benefits in the long run, or perhaps just a sentimental waste of resources. It's an interesting proposal, though.
Wow! Beautifully insightful. And the prose was terrific too. What a line to end the video with: "The silent spring could be followed by a wild summer."

You know what silent spring was referring to right? The book..

i never understand who would dislike videos like this...
:(
Sqiggly lines peoply who dont believe science
they are the ones who didn't understand a word
Those who hate imperial system
I hate the imperial system but loved this video.
YOUR CHANNEL HAS NO CONTENT BUT 8 SUBS
Oh man, Rewilding is such a cool name.
Tony Gonzales Sounds like a name for a video game
keep the few year streak alive
“....the silent spring can be proceeded by a wild summer.”
Touches my heart every time.

So your telling me the largest land mammal which is the Elephant is only so big, because there survivors from a time where all animals where that size?
No. Woolly mammoths are smaller that African elephants, but the same size or slightly larger that Asian elephants.
There were other mammoth species e.g Colombian mammoth and steppe mammoth that are over twice the size of modern African elephants, and other species of giant herbivores e.g Elasmotherium that reached the size of African elephants
@riaz islam 35 that's not true, elephants were and are larger tham ground sloths and woolly mammoths we between Loxodonta africana and Elephas maximus in size.

@Metal Gear Godzillanthropus your thinking of Andrewsarchus and Arctodus simus a.k.a The Giant short-faced Bear.
Professional, informative and beautifully illustrated. One of my favorite episodes!
Very astonishing art, feels nostalgic and give me subtle feeling
Yeah i liked the art a lot. It reminding me of the child's books, me and my mom would read when i was younger.
No words can describe how grateful this generation -specially youngsters- to TED-ED videos.
Great learning tool. Thank you TED-ED doe this powerful, well presented tool.
why is specially youngsters cross out
Awwwwwww, this animation is shooooo cute... I loved it ..
Randy Marsh Homophobic noted ... :p
Dr Santosh Dharmadhikar tomorrow is my birthday

Me tooo 😊
My favorite parts where the elephant's little tail wag and when the cellphone tower thing turned into a tree!
i almost cried as a student studying landscape architecture/ super insightful and touching. Rewilding! what a fabulous and excited name and concept!
Beautiful animation and narration. I am grateful for these TED-Ed videos, we are fortunate to live in a time with such accessible and engaging content!
Nice to see I'm not the only one watching in 2024
This is awesome! I hope one day the world figures this out.
I absolutely love the ideas behind rewilding!

Sketches in motion...amazing concept, beautifully portrayed!
I'm so glad you guys made a TED-ED Cartoon for Rewilding. I really enjoyed George Monbiot's Ted talk
This was wonderful! But one thing could have been better: the sound department could have figured out their volume level. It sure would have been nice if we didn't have to turn up our volume all the way up... But otherwise, splendid job folks!
send this video to the president
Obama is gone
***** Not literally...
trump doesnt care about it
eric tatemura Trump don't care bout anythin'
Except himself, and maybe his country
Why doesn't this guy do voice-overs most of the time
Orbit I am wearing headphones and I can here every breath he takes
I like Addison Anderson, who does most of these videos, but he pronounces an 'L' in the word 'both'! There's no L in both!!
Good question
@@Samwise108 it's an accent, most likely.
I really like his voice and it's very soothing, but the way he says sloths, pumas, and coyote is just so strange!
I can see this as an archive video seen over a hundred years from now. "Now that was called wildlife and nature, children!"
I remembered when I read a book about the wolf that returned to the Yellowstone National Park.
The narrator's voice is so calming
Agreed
You don't need to clone woolly mammoths just put a fluffy swtter on an Elephant.
It is a very meaningful content that expresses that life and nature can be restored to us humans. Thanks for your hard work 🤍
Avi Ofers animation is so so enigmatic! Just simple lines but tells stories
4:03 that’s such creative animating
The sound of the birds and animals at the last was extremely good and peaceful
We can also introduce species related to those that left vacant niches. For instance we could introduce African cheetahs to hunt pronghorn, elephants in place of mammoths and mastodon to cultivate the land and perhaps even lions to replace the big cats that used to live here.
Glad to see this has caught on so well in a lot of places
Pure gold....every word in this video
This was so poetic...
One of your best videos. Nice job TED-Ed.
I love the Animation and the George's soft voice..😊
Ted ed is quite the eye opener
Amazing info and animation! Hope it reaches all people in different parts of the world!!
wow! very fascinating video, thank you! nature is so amazingly complex and interconnected, it blows my mind!
Rewinding is the best project !!
lol at 3:40 that guy scratches his butt after scaring that man who hugged the tree
Why didn't I watch this sooner this one is such a well written episode
Please use the units that most of the world uses
wojtekimbier Lol, I’m American and I still agree.
If I'm not mistaken there are 204 countries in the world and only 4 of them use imperial units!
GermanGamer7 Not quite: Britain and Australia.
edi I'm in Britain and we mostly use metric
I thought you still drink a pint of beer etc. I do know some Brits and they all use pounds, In and ft, but AFAIK, they don't go crazy on derived values like PSI etc.
Moreover, I haven't read any novel of a native English speaker that used SI units. At least I can't remember any. Still, it's good to hear, that at least here, we can slowly unite (BREXIT cough cough).
I love it how nature made it so that one animal in that ecosystem impacts all
There has also been consideration of releasing African Cheetahs where Prong Horns live to act as their predator. Sometimes, you don't need to clone for something like that. If an already existing animal can fill a certain role perfectly in the same environment, then they can fit that role.
Awesome video. I'm going to show this to my TED-Ed Club.
so nice that everything changes
I love the sound you added in the end
Beautiful write up, beautiful narration :)
This title is misleading. I came in for a food chain. Got Rewilding.
That would be amazing! Let us rewild!
Video is so beautiful the language he speaked is so good.
Aww armadillos car sized- too much cuteness for meeeee
They were actually pretty grotesque looking compared to modern armadillos
Its true that rewilding is not an excuse to push people off the land .mother nature wanted us to co-exist with these majestic and amazing creatures
Truly a beautiful and educative video
I feel like most videos only talk about the sad stuff, not this wonderful chance we have to replenish the earth.
I saw something about this on NOVA. It talked about it in more detail and about other reintroductions along with some of the controversy some humans might have.
Very beautiful and concise. I'm gonna say this should be required viewing for children in developed countries.
Please do a video on Pleistocene rewilding as well
Beautiful animation, I have to say that this might be my favorite style!
Well this was just *delicously* amazing
And this is the *chain* that leads to my wisdom
I am *carnivorously* hungry for these videos
Such a calm video...
Re Wilding but with native species only! Is the best project there is
This is inteligent ecology.
Thank you, George Monbiot ! Truely touching
It is really a video gives hope, especially when first learning after 2020.
The year not only the pandemic, and also all medias tried to deprive hope from you.
so full of hope
Like scotland for example, predators ran wild a perfect ecosystem, until we came.
i really like the animation
that last line
Awesome animation!
this video is amazing
Damn, this is a good one. Thank you and good job.
Like the animation
It would be great to see lions return to the places they used to live
Hahaha, Europeans killed everything huh?
Off all the animals, Man is the only one that is cruel. He is the only one inflicts pain for the pleasure of doing it.
Mark Twain
Well, Europeans. Don't include the rest of the planet.😉
More one eats, the less number of this species.
The food chain requires the never-ending of cycling.
When you don`t get eaten, or go back to the soil, it`s out of the cycle.
I wish humans worked with the consent of other species so that we wouldn’t have to rewild in the first place
Well when you are wearing pelts for clothing and being slaughtered by giant creatures, you tend to not want to work so cooperatively with those giant creatures.
“Excuse me mr beaver,would you mind if we popped a bridge 30 yards downstream?”
*lion king theme* IT’S THE CIRCLE OF LIFE!!!!!!
Great vid
I would like to react '
Yea shivers every where on my body

I liked this video a lot.

We are one we all can live With nature as part of the environment🕊☘️
The silent spring could be followed by a wild summer.
You deserve a huge one
Beautiful video.
Monbiot has a book, 'Feral' which is pretty damn good. About rewilding.
Beautiful...
Everyone must watch this
This is amazing
4:00 where the wild things are reference c:
Great video about rewilding.
I can hear the algorithm recommending this video
This gives me hope :)
Use metric units like the rest of the civilized world....
what r u sayin dat we aint civilized just cuz we dont use ur stupid metrics?! aint nobody got the time fer no god dam metrics over here in murica u probably r some idiot oboma fan lemme tell you ima keep my miles and pounds til i die cuz thats what my forefathers died fer MAH FREEDOM!!!
i couldn't resist, it's so sad that most people who resist changing are completely ignorant to how much easier the metric system is. keeping the clunky old system is some of the worst examples of lazy and ignorant that exists.
