Trees for Life is a registered charity working to rewild the Scottish Highlands. The Caledonian Forest once covered a large area of the Highlands of Scotland as extensive stands of majestic Scots pine, interspersed with birch, rowan, juniper and aspen trees, but is now reduced to about 2% of its former extent. Through planting native species of trees, removing non-native species and fencing seedlings to protect them from overgrazing by deer and sheep, Trees for Life aims to help the natural regeneration of the forest. Its long-term goal is to create a fully restored, healthy ecosystem, with the reintroduction of missing species of wildlife, such as the beaver, wild boar, lynx and wolf.

  • Trees for Life (Écosse) est une association enregistrée à Findhorn, en Moray, formé en 1989 par Alan Watson Featherstone, qui s'inspire alors de l'exemple de Richard St. Barbe Baker, le « Man of the Trees ». Cette association faisait à l'origine partie de la , mais elle est devenue indépendante, bien que ses bureaux soient toujours basés dans le parc Findhorn et reste très liée avec la fondation. (fr)

  • Trees for Life (англ. Trees for Life — «деревья для жизни») благотворительная природоохранная организация, основанная в шотландской деревне Финдхорн (Морей) в 1989 году. Организация ставит своей главной задачей воссоздание и сохранение Каледонского леса, когда-то покрывавшего значительную часть Шотландского высокогорья. Долгосрочной стратегической целью является восстановление общей площади дикой природы до 1600 км² и реинтродукция ранее обитавших в ней видов животных — евразийского бобра, дикого кабана, рысь и волка.
