BRINGING SPECIES BACK TO OUR CITIES
Beavers once thrived across the UK, but over the centuries, they disappeared from our landscapes. Now, for the first time in 400 years, we’ve brought them back to London. Through collaboration with local communities, councils, and with support from Mayor Sadiq Khan, Citizen Zoo has reintroduced beavers to the city. This pioneering project is just the beginning, as we plan to expand reintroduction efforts to more locations across London, restoring natural ecosystems, supporting biodiversity, and demonstrating how wildlife can coexist with urban life.


REWILDING HEARTS AND MINDS
At Citizen Zoo, we're dedicated to making nature accessible to all. Our initiatives bring young carers, people with disabilities, and other underserved groups into the natural world, fostering a deep connection with wildlife and conservation. By rewilding hearts and minds, we’re not only nurturing a love for nature but also creating inclusive opportunities that empower everyone to participate in and benefit from rewilding efforts.
RESTORING HABITATS AND ECOSYSTEMS
Rivers across the UK have suffered from habitat loss and biodiversity decline, leaving species like the water vole at risk. Through our water vole reintroduction programme, we’re working to restore and revitalise river habitats, creating ecosystems where wildlife can thrive once more. By supporting Citizen Zoo, you’re helping to bring back these iconic species and rebuild healthy, balanced river ecosystems that benefit all life along our waterways.


CHAMPIONING THE INTRINSIC VALUE OF ALL LIFE
At Citizen Zoo, we believe in the intrinsic value of all species, no matter their size or popularity. While invertebrates like the large marsh grasshopper often go unnoticed, they play a crucial role in supporting functional ecosystems. Despite significant declines over recent decades, these grasshoppers and other vital invertebrates are essential for a healthy environment. That’s why we’re committed to rewilding efforts across all species groups, recognising the importance of every life form in sustaining our natural world.
Opportunities Through Rewilding
Reviving Species Populations
Rewilding offers the opportunity to bring species back from the brink, allowing populations to recover and thrive. By creating safe habitats, removing pressures, and fostering natural processes, we can reverse the trends of extinction and restore biodiversity. Rewilding is not just about preserving species; it’s about giving wildlife the space to flourish and reintegrate as vital parts of our ecosystems.


Restoring Habitats and Landscapes
Through rewilding, we can regenerate degraded habitats and reimagine landscapes to support diverse life forms. From forests and grasslands to rivers and wetlands, restoring these areas enhances natural resilience, helps mitigate climate change, and revitalises entire ecosystems. Rewilded landscapes offer a renewed sense of place, filled with the richness and variety of life that once shaped them.
Rebuilding Ecosystems – Our Life Support Systems
Ecosystems are our planet’s life support systems, providing clean air, water, and soil health essential for all life. Rewilding allows us to rebuild these systems, fostering self-sustaining, functional ecosystems that serve as the foundation for environmental and human well-being. By restoring balance, rewilding strengthens our connection to the natural world and helps ensure a stable, thriving planet for future generations.
