Okay, so the next story brings us over to the United States, where a new fund has been launched for species recovery.
Digby WheelerHOST
Yeah, this is the news that the $200 million Phoenix Species Fund has been set up by the two organizations Rewild and the Bezos Earth Fund, an offshoot of Amazon.
Digby WheelerHOST
This is an audacious project which will work to recover over 100 of the world's rarest species, and it marks the largest single fund dedicated solely to species conservation ever.
Lucas RousseauHOST
Amazing.
Digby WheelerHOST
amazing animals we've also got the Charco Azul pupfish in Mexico as well as the Cozumel harvest mouse the Visayan warty pig in the Philippines the hickory nut gorge green salamander in North Carolina which is my favourite of that one and the list goes on so it's really great to see these endemic and interesting and potentially undervalued species getting much needed love and support
Lucas RousseauHOST
great amazing Okay, and the next story brings us to two exciting news items from Kazakhstan.
Digby WheelerHOST
Yeah, so for our final story, we're focusing on not one, but two really inspiring rewilding stories from Kazakhstan, which is the ninth largest country on Earth and the largest landlocked nation.
Digby WheelerHOST
Rewilding in this country is common in leaps and bounds through the recent return of two iconic and very different species, the Schawowski's horse and the once extinct Caspian tiger.
