European Rewilding Network | Rewilding Intro | Kernow Conservation

In November 2024, the European Rewilding Network (ERN) hosted a new ‘Rewilding Intro’ event, a mini-webinar series through which ERN initiatives share their #rewilding success stories. Founded in 2019, Kernow Conservation is a community-led, non-profit organisation working in partnership with other conservation organisations, landowners, and local businesses to restore wildlife and biodiversity across the UK county of Cornwall. In recognition of Kernow Conservation’s rewilding efforts, the European Rewilding Network welcomed the organisation as it's 90th member in 2023, and supported the release of water voles through the European Wildlife Comeback Fund. Water voles are territorial, semi-aquatic rodents found in freshwater habitats across much of Europe and Asia. Despite their diminutive size (adults typically weight between 150 and 300g), they are considered keystone species, helping to create dynamic, healthy wetland habitat that supports numerous other species.
