Origin
• Rewilding
Although the term "rewilding" was used in conservation in other contexts since at least 1990, it was first applied to the restoration of a single species of carnivores by conservationist and ex-carnivore manager of Pilanesberg National Park, Gus Van Dyk in 2003. In an effort to find the most appropriate translation of the Chinese term “野化” Van Dyk chose to adopt the term "rewilding" to describe the Save China's Tigers rewilding project of the South China Tiger.
