After his last sell out talk at Calstock Arts, Derek Gow returns to update us on the important work he is doing in rewilding and nature renewal.

Derek is a farmer turned nature conservationist who has played a significant role in the reintroduction of the Eurasian beaver, the water voles and the white stork. He is currently working on a reintroduction project for the wildcat and increasing the numbers of harvest mice and glow worms. He is also rewilding his 300 acre farm near Lifton, Devon.

Derek is a leading force behind “Keep it Wild” a charity set up to fight against the biodiversity crisis and his talk will outline what the charity is doing and how you can help.

Author of a number of acclaimed books, Derek’s latest “Hunt for the Shadow Wolf” attempts to uncover the true nature of this animal and what role it could play in Britain`s landscape.
