Steered by a passionate new advocacy for veganism, Randal — who tradition dictates should be addressed as Lord Dunsany — came upon the concept of ‘rewilding’ seven years ago, a progressive approach to conservation allowing the environment to take care of itself and return to a native natural state. “I wanted to take what was once agricultural farm land and return it to the wild. We’re guardians keeping a distant, watchful eye on the plant and animal life. And the results speak for themselves.”

In a country where fox hunting is still legal, Randal regularly petrols his land to keep hunters out and has been on the receiving end of multiple threats to his life and livelihood.  But when mature native woodlands in Ireland are down to less than 1% (as compared to other EU countries that are 30 - 40%), and when the United Nations says we must re-wild an area the size of China to save our human race, no matter the risk, Randal refuses to back down because he knows the stakes of the war he is waging.  The war is against climate change not hunters or trains.

​

For 8 months, we follow Randal, his family, and cast while he grows into his role from a renegade to an environmental virtuoso, interview experts and those that are opposed, learn about this family's heritage, follow the rehabilitation and release of wild animals such as foxes, badgers, otters, and red-listed animals such as the Kestrel and Pine Marten on the verge of extinction, confront hunters, discovering a revolutionary new biodiversity currency, prepare for the TEDx stage where he will share his remarkable findings with the world, and finally get the recognition he and his family deserves when featured in James Cameron's "Game Changers 2" in 2025.  

But, will this be enough to stop the country from destroying the land?
