LANDUCATE - to chew up lands in the name of restoring a state of eco-stasis.
Example: the re-introduction of warthogs to Yellowstone National Park because they were snorting around during the Pleistocene.

Very clever indeed! Although possibly open to misinterpretation - I would have guessed it meant aging very fast, and prematurely ("progeria"). I offer as evidence a very old joke:
...Young cub reporter on her first Human Interest assignment goes to a Nursing Home to interview the oldest resident she can see.
"What do you owe your age to?" she ventures.
"Three things," he says. "I smoke a carton of cigarettes every day. I drink a quart of bourbon daily. I never sleep with the same woman twice...and I never go to bed alone!" comes the reply.
"Oh, my goodness," says the sweet young thing. "And just how old are you?
"Twenty-three," he says...
