description Actors in the movement for the promotion of nature and rewilding rely on very distinct spatial and temporal references upon which to ground their strategies and projects. The different forms of rewilding reveal imaginary representations and scientific (normative) conceptions of contrasting forest landscapes. Since the early 2000s, the model of a European primary forest developed at the beginning of the Holocene as a dense continuous cover has competed with other hypotheses, including the one put forward by Frans Vera. The latter defends the idea of a post-glacial forest with a "savannah-like aspect" the dynamics and structure of which were strongly influenced by large herbivorous animals. Moreover, while the proponents of rewilding "look" to the past, they also develop futuristic projects designed over long periods of time. The implementation of rewilding operations integrates simple transpositions of these models as well as the complexity of local histories. This contributes to a diversified narrative of renewed relationships to wilderness in Europe.
