Armed with Backpacks of Seeds, Local Pooches Enlisted to Help Rewild Urban Nature Reserve
Inspired by a similar project in Chile, an English town is employing a unique method to restore a degraded urban nature reserve: dog walkers and their canine companions. Drawing on the natural tendency of dogs to explore and roam, the project equips pooches with special harnesses carrying backpacks filled with wildflower seeds. As the dogs run through the reserve, the seeds snag on their fur and disperse throughout the area, mimicking the role once played by wild animals like wolves. This innovative approach not only leverages the enthusiasm of dog walkers and their furry friends but also promotes ecological awareness within the community.
