Our herds of cattle and horses have been grazing in Dutch and European nature for more than 30 years. More than 1000 animals on more than 4000 hectares. The landscape is flourishing with an explosion of biodiversity. After years of pioneering, we have developed ourselves into a respected partner in the field of natural grazing and the de-domestication of farm animals. We fill the niche between theorizing about rewilding and providing substance to the practical side. We are standing in the mud, with poop on our hands and rewilding an animal that should be an icon of nature conservation: the primeval cattle.
We share that knowledge and experience. We provide training and courses on how to deal with (semi-)wild grazers and how to carry out herd management with as little stress as possible for the animals or the people who do it.
We have experience in de-domestication of animals/herds and the introduction of herds into new areas where they need to adapt to local conditions. We understand the process of de-domestication and reintroduction and are specialists in managing virtually wild herds in large areas. We know how to take a cow by the horns, literally.
The Tauros is our showpiece. Glistening black and brown, extremely strong and weather-resistant. The primeval cattle 2.0!
The Scottish Highlander has more than proved its worth as a trusted grazer in the Dutch countryside.
The original European species of wild horses are extinct. The Exmoor pony is a worthy replacement.
We are committed to increasing biodiversity in nature reserves in the Netherlands and abroad. In our opinion, the key lies in natural grazing by wild grazers, or Grazelands!
