This year it has been ten years since European bison have been reintroduced in the Netherlands. In 2009 I worked on a story for the Dutch edition of National Geographic magazine and I have been following the reintroduction process from the sidelines ever since.
European bison were hunted to extinction in the wild in Europe in 1927. However, captive breeding and re-wilding projects have seen the population rise to over 5,000, with more than half living in wild herds. Bison – Europe’s largest land mammal – help to maintain a mosaic of ecologically rich forest and grassland.

Follow me @jasperdoest for more on images of this successful reintroduction.
