Wolf cubs arrive in Devon from Sweden as part of rewilding plan

[Pan mixer]

I think that we should say we have reintroduced wolves/ bears/anything with many big teeth into the countryside.

It would keep out the ramblers, no problem.

Anyone for a 'Beware of the Bear' sign?

Don't need to actually buy one of them, just pinch a few off Southend Council

West Country folks can get the same from Minehead Council . Also Moose Watch ones

They have them in Germany. They are the 'badgers' of that area: given cult status by their protectors and getting very bold. They've emigrated from forest to farmland, use main roads and are now living in packs within a short distance of towns.

And when they've hoovered up the forest critters, farmed livestock is easy meat.

All these right to roam nobheads are going to be in for some fun, when they're stopped from rambling all over the shop incase they're eaten, give it 10 years and the green lobby will be at each others necks

Can anyone tell me what use they would be ? whats the point of them ?
yes they may have once been native here but so were lots of animals
can't we think of something really nasty that would love to live in town we could reintroduce ?

whats the stocking rate per acre for brontosaurus ?

I think the reasoning something like a pyramid effect, where a 'small' tweak at the top of the food chain results in massive ecological change and diversity further down. Something like that iirc mate.

Football hooligans perhaps. They seem almost extinct now

Quite, my main issues are nobody will take full responsibility for such an experiment in the final analysis, and the liberty freely being taken with the property and livelihoods of others.

Bloody hell, these people have gone nuts. My old man spent some time in Canada when he was a young man ( the military ) and the wolfs were so dangerouse they had to keep the rifle with them at all times, these sandle wearers need to spend a few nights without a gun camping amongst some wolfs before they start letting them out!
