Show Notes
Reintroducing rescued anteaters from hunters in northern Argentina into the country's Iberá reserve is no small task. However, In 2007, the first pair was reintroduced by the Conservation Land Trust (now known as the Rewilding Foundation).
14 years on, the program has taken this success and used it as a framework for subsequent reintroduction of other native species.
