“…Communication between scientists, policy-makers, decisionmakers, and the public will be essential to allow the implementation of rewilding, and to promote the values of wilderness in a landscape. Development initiatives are also known to ease the transitions between one form of management and another, for instance by increasing the support of local communities for the protected area (Pinto and Partidário 2012). Giving the opportunities to populations to shift their activities from low-income agriculture to ecotourism in rewilded areas can be an efficient way to meet both ends (see Chaps.…”

“…At the same time, the first "National Parks" (NP) were designated in the USA, in Yosemite NP, in 1864, then Yellowstone NP, in 1872 (Possingham et al 2006), with the aim of preserving nature for recreational, cultural and ethical reasons (Borrini-Feyerabend et al 2013). In 1909 the first European park was created in Sweden (Pinto and Partidário 2012;Ramão et al 2012). Yet, it was not until the second half of the twentieth century that the official definition of "National Parks" was given by the IUCN as the first resolution of its 10th assembly (IUCN 1969).…”
