Nestled in Bulgaria’s Rhodope Mountains, Zhenda is poised to become a beacon of nature recovery. As they take bold steps to unlock the site’s rewilding potential, the Rewilding Rhodopes team are working towards a wilder future where nature and people thrive together.

A group of five European bison have just been released in the Zhenda rewilding site in Bulgaria’s Rhodope Mountains. With the free-roaming bison population already in the landscape growing steadily, the new arrivals will amplify the beneficial impact of this iconic keystone species.
