Big Patterdales

Lynx might have fitted into the eco system 1300 years ago but things change,more people and stock,less wilderness.The only good thing,they will need you blokes to control the lynx population unless they bring back wolves.

Just shows how nuts theses people are why would a wild predator waste energy hunting and chasing a deer when it can just pull down a sheep?

Just another way the UK can f**k there farmers over.

and why is it ok for a lynx to take deer but not a lurcher.?

I think you missed the point there.

no i got it,sheep and calves and anything behind a fence will be targeted.

So why were you talking about lurchers taking deer?

i was just pointing out that it's hipocritical? to introduce a species to control deer but banned hunters from doing the same job as what they plan to introduce

I see what you mean now, and its a good point, but...

 

They haven't banned hunters from managing deer. They've banned people running them with dogs but you can still shoot them.

exactly,you can't run them with dogs but they want to introduce lynx to do the same job.with an added bonus of losing domestic stock and maybe a odd kid thrown in for good measure.

Its alright for an animal to kill another animal for food, thats nature. Its only when a human owns the animal that kills another it becomes cruel and wrong to some types. Why release another feline predator ?. Scottish wild cat is already the apex predator of the highlands. Can see the bigger lynx wiping them out. Their going to be in direct competition.

True wildcats are thin on the ground in Scotland. Atb dc

[rabbit demon 302]

I only ever saw 3 wild cats around the loch lomond area in 20 years and I was always on the hills doing some kind of hunting or walking to wee hill lochs fishing. I grew up there. Two I only got a glimpse at for a few seconds and I found a kitten by itself. Im guessing it was around 8 weeks. 250 lynx would push them out fairly quick.
