Résumé :	With the loss of natural wetlands in western Europe, conservationists involved in 'restoration projects' become increasingly interested in eastern Europe for reference. In Poland, for example, still some 5% of the country is covered by fen mires, raised peat bogs and other types of wetlands. Although not in a pristine state anymore, size and quality of these wetlands are still sufficient to guarantee high biodiversity and a buffer against stochastic events. If anything, these reserves show that size really matters, and also that any attempt at 'restoration' of a pristine state is doomed to failure.
