Rewilding is the return of natural species and ecosystems to areas where they have been eradicated. This includes large-scale conservation aimed at restoring and protecting natural processes and core wilderness areas, providing connectivity between such areas, and protecting or reintroducing apex predators and keystone species. It also includes the return of wild plants and animals to spaces intended for humans, as well as the primitivist philosophy of rewilding humanity.

Hi,
Hopefully this post isn't out of place in this sub, sorry if it is.
So this is probably going to be a little bit rambly but if anyone has thoughts, I would appreciate them. I am currently in my first year of college at a community (junior) college in the US, and need to choose my major to lock it down sooner than later. I feel drawn to do something with the environment growing up in the time that I am. I feel like conservation and environmental work that at least has something to do with animals interests me. Rewilding is also something I am interested in. The problem is, I am not great at math. Or a lot of sciences. I am totally a humanities/social science person. Any recommendations of majors/career paths that fit this mold (I realized that there might not be since it is a weird fit) of environmental work coupled with social sciences/humanities, or at least not super STEM heavy? In this age of what has been going on with the environment, I feel like I really want to make some sort of contribution, even though my skills aren’t entirely a perfect fit for the field.

I have been wanting to move to the EU and have an ecology degree. I’ve been looking online for rewilding jobs but can only find rewinding Europe or Britain. I know there are other institutions that do this kind of work, but haven’t been able to come across them. Does anyone here know of a good way to make my dream a reality? I was born in Germany but raised in the US so I have a German passport.
I live in a city in Kentucky across the river from Cincinnati. I have a small yard which is basically a vacant lot with grass. I know it's not much space to work with, but I would love to get some native Northern Kentucky grasses and flowers growing there. Where do I start?
Untouched land other than mown every august for hay by a local farmer.
Is there anything to plant that’ll be more beneficial and spread itself that’s good for wildlife?
