    "Elephants and Komodo dragons in Australia? Bears and wolves roaming freely throughout European villages and towns? It might sound a bit far-fetched, but this all fits within a new strand of conservation theory known as Rewilding.

Interesting concept in regards to Geography and discussions of sustainability.
