He collaborates with a variety of organizations and institutions for the research of flora and fauna.Randal Plunkett is the owner of Dunsany Estate, which he inherited in 2011, and has since transformed it into the largest private nature reserve in Ireland.

Dalibor Dostál is the director of the conservation organization Česká krajina, which he founded in collaboration with Czech scientists in 2015. This unique large herbivore reserve, located in the former military area of Milovice in the Central Bohemian Region, has faced continuous pressures since its inception. The establishment of the reserve aims to inspire our society to change its approach to the environment and to encourage active participation in creating a greener future. The former military area of Milovice represents a naturally valuable lowland, preserved in such an extent. However, due to its connection to cities and a highway, the area is also lucrative for development and commercial projects.
