Yes, the ecology is unnatural there because of the lack of wolf, lynx, etc, with Malthusian processes operating to limit numbers. The Knepp estate is using humans as apex predator. Your article has made me want to visit the place - thanks! As for landscape-scale rewilding in Norfolk, it's all down to landowners - just one major landowner such as Holkham could make a massive difference. The ideas need to get out, and places like Knepp are inspiring. Significantly, a change in EU payments kick-started the story there.
