Chapter five compares conservation as composition with rewilding, an alternative model concerned with ecological processes. Through a critical examination of the use of large herbivores on a polder landscape in the Netherlands, this chapter presents conservation as comprising wild experiments involving open-ended deliberations with multiple and discordant humans and nonhumans.
