We have released does and stags this autumn, for the first time it was outside our rewilding grounds, initiating direct cooperation with the managers of neighboring areas and impacting the broader Velebit region.

It is now five decades since the first chamois were reintroduced in the Velebit area, and the speies has been continuously present here ever since. While the chamois population in Velebit is gradually increasing, there is room and reason to increase numbers further, as well as increasing the amount of habitat that could support this iconic and ecologically important animal.

We have selected the best descriptions of bear encounters submitted by our visitors. Read the awarded descriptions and check out the photos and video of these exciting encounters.

Seven years ago, we started restoring water ponds, wells and springs on Velebit, in order to provide a safe source of water for wildlife on this karst terrain. So far, we have renovated or built 30 new water bodies.

Choose one or more of our promotional materials for yourself or somebody else and thus directly help finance nature protection on Velebit.

Several EU member states are not backing the important Nature Restoration Law, which was adopted in the EU parliament, although a big majority of citizens of these countries are supporting the new law, a survey shows.

Through rewilding, we preserve nature but also promote nature-based entrepreneurship that adheres to rewilding principles. The fragrance Tiana by entrepreneur Tamara Jurković from Otočac is the first product from the future Lika rewilding basket.

Can you see yourself joining a passionate and innovative team of people working to make Velebit a wilder place? We are looking for a motivated and ambitious person to join our team at the position of Enterprise Officer.

Our followers sent us their works in our photo-drawing-painting contest, and we enjoyed selecting the very best ones. Check them out.

Today, rewilding in the Velebit Mountains of Croatia is going from strength to strength. By showcasing the landscape, its wildlife and local rewilding efforts, the new Rewilding Velebit website should prove an effective tool for outreach and upscaling.
