Joshua Duclos, philosopher and author of *Wilderness, Morality, and Value*, explores the paradox of wilderness in relation to wildlife suffering. He challenges the notion that wilderness is inherently good for wildlife, highlighting the moral ambiguity of wilderness preservation. Duclos advocates for reframing our understanding of wilderness, discussing rewilding, wild animal welfare, and the anthropocentric values we assign to natural spaces. He emphasizes the need for more philosophical and scientific inquiry into intervention strategies that could alleviate suffering in wild animals.
