Around 100 children demonstrated outside Buckingham Palace in London to ask the Queen to rewild the land she owns in the UK.

Iran PressEurope: The Royal Family is one of the biggest landowners in Britain, and campaign group Wild Card wants that land to be restored to allow 'untamed life to return to its ecosystems and landscapes.'

 According to France24 television network, Scores of children and their parents joined the march across nearby Green Park to the queen's official residence to deliver a petition with more than 100,000 signatures asking royals to "rewild" their land.

Mum Hannah Clayton, 41, from Islington, north London, who attended the march with her son, said: 'The Royal family have a huge amount land, and I think rewilding would be a really easy thing to do and makes such a big difference to biodiversity.'

The petition asks the family to return hundreds of thousands of hectares of land it owns to its natural state, encouraging the return of native species before the UN's COP26 climate summit hosted by Britain in October.

Campaigners also calculate the royals own land equivalent to 1.4 percent of the UK, much of which they say could be used to encourage nature.
