I thought the Taurus weren’t considered ‘complete’ yet? There are still several features which aren’t quite matching the original animal they’re trying to recreate.

27 years after Ash Ketchum caught them all, they’re finally being released back into the wild.

Neat. I wonder how they encourage the behaviour they’re looking for.Â

Looks like a great project – hope it goes well. What about European Bison – surely they are larger and heavier?

IMO they’ll most likely end up like those wallabies at Leonardslee in Sussex – carefully managed for a few years till priorities change, then left to get on with it.
After being introduced by Victorian-era aristocrat Sir Edmund Loder, in recent decades the wallabies have been rife with inbred deformities and disease. Apparently that estate is now owned by somebody who lives in South Africa, so I can understand it not being a priority.
These projects need much stronger legislation, to ensure they are managed down when investors lose interest, not left for local authorities, charities, etc. to have to pick up the pieces.
