This video explores how conservation remains tethered to chauvinistic ideologies. • It explores how archaic beliefs about animals, wildlife, and nature, has erased one of the Earth's most significant rewilding events in recent history: the rewilding of donkeys. • Feminism would radically reshape conservation and our view of nature. It would value all creatures, whether considered native or not. • If conservation was feminist, we would recognise wild donkeys as the magnificent wild animals that they are. And when we do, we would also discover that the Earth is in some respects wilder today than it has been for thousands of years. • A feminist conservation calls us to treat wildlife as subjects, with respect for their unique subjectivity, dignity, interests, and agency. • It would be, in essence, a Compassionate Conservation. • • Writer, director presenter: Dr Arian Wallach • Affiliation: FeraLab, Centre for Compassionate Conservation, University of Technology Sydney • Event: Keynote address for the conference 'Feral', hosted by Massey University Wageningen University. http://perc.ac.nz/wordpress/feral/ • Producer: Tommy Lin • • Sources: • De Greef K (2017) National Geographic https://news.nationalgeographic.com/2... • Ingold T 2002.
