  1. Found in a gamekeepers freezer when he was raided by the police and RSPCA for shooting birds of prey , he claimed it was raiding his pheasant pens no reports of anyone loosing it, many people think the Lynx was never made extinct just reduced to such small numbers it became nearly impossible to find them, much like the eastern puma that was declared extinct this year despite people still seeing them around, it's cheaper and easier to declare them extinct than try to do something to save the few left in the wild, when the Kildare forest Lynx are released I,m hoping at least one will pair up wit
  2. The rewilding program of the eu has been steaming along unnoticed for years, the Lynx,s needed a lot of insurance cover before they could be released and now they have a company willing to pay for any damage for 5 years, it's the last hurdle, they have been waiting in captivity for 5/6 years, with the deer population explosion we do need an apex predator, that's why the ones already here are doing so well in recent years especially with the snack size muntjac spreading quicker than Islam, otters were first, polecats are the current animal being reared in captivity and released everywhere and
  3. Getting a load of split logs delivered end of month, ??and us southerners are meant to be the softies, get a saw and an axe then you get warm twice, once cutting the wood and once burning it, never understand anyone who burns wood but won't collect it, not cost effective and messy unless you are away from mains and have no other choice, which would be very rare in the uk ??
  4. Without going into to much depth, many moons ago a friend of mine was involved in shooting someone, he went on the run after the event and was tracked down to a hotel in jersey, an armed police unit took the door off at around 4am the lad was asleep bollack naked in bed with some bird he,d picked up on route, so quite clearly not a great threat at this point yet out of 10 highly trained armed officers that entered the room, 3 of them threw up all over the lad the bird and the bed they were in and were quickly ushered out the room turned out it was there first time in a live situation and if t
  5. They never left us??
  6. They have gps tracking collars on much the same as many of the other cats that become film stars, after 6months you would never see them again if they never, ?
  7. What's a snow drift ? ??
  8. You can only train for so much, but until your faced with the problem and a few seconds to react to it, no one can honestly say how they would react, this is the result of a highly trained idiot given a gun, and as police forces become more and more like untrained army,s this shit will become more frequent,
  9. Was going to say the same mate, if I done 6/7 birds it would cost me more in chiropractors and viagras ??
  10. I thought they were free, just involves tilting your neck upwards ?? The cost is made up of getting to Norway and paying for accommodation,both of which you have already covered, have a good one ?
  11. Pisspoor planning leads to pisspoor performance, ?
  12. Another great BOOM BOOM, I think your talent is wasted on here mate,
  13. Getting a few bats on the trail cams as well which is a first sorry for the quality but it's moving quite fast ?
  14. They are the ultimate predator, even a domestic house cat is quite impressive to watch, also makes it very easy for them to hide from people with inferior skills to myself Nice pics, hope your boy had a good day mate there are Several different Lynx,s , I think the Iberian Lynx is only about 15kg fully grown still take a good dog to face it though ?
  15. Thanks really like things like that but think it's a bit far in a transit van to visit, ?
  16. Here's a story from Wales online today
  17. People were walking the streets of Britain with lions, tigers, Pumas and leopards upto the mid 70s surprising if there were,nt a few incidents, I think a tiger was about £250 in Harrods back then so probably the same kind of spoilt rich feckers owned them here as well plus the odd scrap yard that had them to guard the yard ?
  18. Sorry mate just wrote you a long reply and my battery went before I could send it, but short answer they are very onboard and help us out with certain things, will give a fuller response when I,m recharged cheers
  19. Couple of pics from the Devon show, the stand is shared with exmoor zoo at this show, 11 reported sightings plus one in the last couple of days near oakhampton for anyone interested ?
  20. Think there is still an annual event at Weston super mare, they charge for entry, in future Ventura people just made them on the beach and put a hat down for passers by to put money in much better because if you sculpture was shit you earned nothing, they are some very high end sculpture you have put up there is that a competition ? Wood carving event at westonbert arboretum is also very impressive ?
  21. I think he already has to a degree, he,s accepted he,s a bit different, but he,s making the most of it instead of moaning and blaming the world for the shit hand he was dealt, happiness is worth a lot ?

    Scrap men

    If you did I,d kill you and if all dads done the same there would be no lady,s of the night, equally many girls are quite happy to earn a living doing the oldest profession in the world and who am I to agree or disagree, the Internet and instant news just seem to make folk very angry about things that have absolutely nothing to do with them or have any bearing on there lives, and I just don't want to waste my life being angry about stuff that don't really matter ?

    I,m very much for rowing my own boat I,m afraid mate, had a right shite start in life and have done alright, good kids the love of a good woman and own my own square of England, if I disagree or dislike something I can do something about it or move away from it, but getting angry about things I,m not involved in is just a waste of time, i,ve not lived the life of a saint and therefore feel it would be a bit hypocritical to judge others especially if I no nothing about them so that's why I,m a bit of a live and let live type of guy
