Historically Europe has struggled to protect its wildlife, and particularly its tree and scrub coverage. The loss of wild places across the continent has warped the popular imagination with respect to what constitutes wilderness. In many countries in Central and Eastern Europe now there is a strong rewilding movement, forging extensive National Parks and protected areas untouched or ignored by developers. Predictably, wildlife soon returns in earnest. The Hohe Tauern National Park in Austria is one such place, home now to previously extirpated endangered birds of prey. Key to these returns is the presence of Alpine Marmots, ever wary of airborne threats. @marmot @rewild @hohetauern_nationalpark @travel.in.austria #marmot #alpinemarmot #alpine #alps #austria #austrian #centraleurope #hohetauern #europeanwildlife #mountains #mountainwildlife #wild #wildlife #wildlifephotography #grossglockner #tirol #tyrol #conservation #rewilding #chrismilliganphoto https://www.instagram.com/p/CPgz2zkgruS/?utm_medium=tumblr
