The dodo is more than a symbol of extinction, it’s a reminder that ecosystems are deeply interconnected. On Mauritius, its disappearance likely affected seed dispersal, plant growth, and overall ecological balance over time. (2/2)

Restoration can reduce disease spillover risk - but not in all cases, and not for all pathogens. Shows we need to understand context and mechanism if we want to restore biodiversity to reduce spillover risk

Sweden is one of the most forested countries in the world 🌲 Yet most forests are intensively managed. Our latest RESTOREID blog explores how management, fires, and restoration impact biodiversity, wildlife—and human health. Read more 👇 restoreid.europamedia.org/news/11/insi...

Loads of cool stuff is going on in RESTOREID, we are half way through and starting to get really interesting results back. Really looking forward to seeing the results of all the hard work sampling lots of rodents across lots of sites.

Halfway through and we are at the super exciting part of starting to see results from the project, very excited to see what will come out over the next two years

From mines to meadows 🌱 Our fieldwork in Flanders reveals how restoration transforms wildlife — and influences zoonotic risk. Read more 👇 🔗 restoreid.eu/news/10/how-...
