Oxford University’s Ecosystems Research Programme will host a three-day conference examining the role that large animals (megafauna) play in ecosystem function in the context of past, present and future ecosystems. The conference will consider how the extinction of large animals in the past has altered the structure and function of ecosystems (from the Arctic to tropical rainforests), and discuss the patterns and ecological consequences of modern-day megafaunal decline. Potential for ‘rewilding’ and the reintroduction of megafauna will also be explored.
We welcome further applications to present posters at the conference (A0 size).
