Charlie is the inspiration behind Knepp Wildland, a 3,500 acre estate in West Sussex and the largest rewilding project in lowland Britain. Switching to ‘process-led’ conservation, using free-roaming herds of grazing animals, Knepp is now a hotspot for numerous endangered species like turtle-doves, nightingales and purple emperor butterflies and has become a leading light in the conservation movement.
