Interesting fact⚠️ Ten years ago, bison were reintroduced in the Tarcu Mountains of Romania.This month, Yale researchers released a paper that estimates that the herd’s grazing could capture up to 54,000 tonnes of carbon each year. This is approximately the equivalent of what 43.000 U.S. cars emit in a year, or roughly 10 times what that ecosystem would have normally captured. The herd counts 170 bison who graze about 48 square kilometers of grassland every year. By doing so, they help fertilize the grass and spread seeds, thereby spurring growth. They also compact the soil, which helps keep carbon in the ground. This type of success suggests that rewilding can be a legitimate tool for policymakers aiming to leverage nature-based solutions to draw down carbon from the atmosphere.
