Lille Vildmose is Denmark's biggest protected area and home to northwestern Europe's largest raised bog. This is a vital store for both carbon and water.

As with many ecosystems across the continent, it has been exploited by humans over past centuries through sphagnum moss harvesting and peat mining.

In this episode, we explore how four-legged tree trimmers are being utilised to restore the bog for the future.

Lille Vildmose is a member of the European Rewilding Network, a collection of groundbreaking initiatives across the continent, brought together by Rewilding Europe as part of a broader rewilding movement.
