Figure 2.

Current projections of trophic rewilding candidates as modelled by the maximum entropy (Maxent) predictive algorithm. Areas below the 10% training threshold and outside the range of model calibration as estimated by Multivariate Environmental Similarity Surfaces (MESS) maps were clipped from the climatic suitability maps. Each panel has its own colour reference, with warmer colours indicating higher climatic suitability. See electronic supplementary material for high-resolution versions of these maps, as well as maps modelled with the Bioclim predictive algorithm. The maps do not address whether a given area is an appropriate recipient area for a given species in terms of species composition, non-climatic environmental factors or societal acceptability.
