Scottish Wolf Reintroduction to Sequester One Million Tons of CO2 Annually
A University of Leeds study proposes reintroducing wolves to the Scottish Highlands to curb red deer overpopulation, which hinders forest regeneration; the model predicts that approximately 167 wolves could sequester one million tons of CO2 annually.
