If it could kill kids out playing or even an adult. They would never want responsibility for that. You could be right. There are no records of lynx attacking anyone (Quick google search).So I'm sure that would be taken into account. Dogs kill kids every year. Personally I'd be much more concerned about the influx of Cane Corsos & other such made up mastiff guard breeds into the hands of fcukwits, than any lynx running around deep forest.

Fags,cars,fireworks, alcohol and grown ups all kill kids mate there still out there, Lynx is not a big cat by any stretch of the imagination, the biggest hurdle was getting insurance cover for any damage they do which has now been agreed so anything they kill will be paid for, for the first 5 years ,if there was even a microscopic chance of them killing kids no insurance company would touch it, they were also a native British animal and many believe they never went just got persecuted into tiny groups, Lynx make up 5 percent of big cat sightings in the uk year on year if you believe in all that nonsense with puma 15 and black leopards 75 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Welsh_red 4,644 Posted November 11, 2017 Report Share Posted November 11, 2017 That's a shame. I imagine being in a zoo would take away many fears it would have of humans Can only see borth closing down. Surely with all the attention on them and the low quality of cages etc there they should seriously have a look at the lions they house 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
forest of dean redneck 11,596 Posted November 11, 2017 Report Share Posted November 11, 2017 Says they are going to inspect later their month? surely it would be more of a priority to inspect it,what if the lions escape ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

What would it take to send a team down there now as opposed to end of the month . Surely a zoo that has general bad housing of animals and recently lost a lynx would be a priority over any other business they have in the next few weeks 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
