Should bears be returned to the wilds of the UK?

If you follow this blog regularly, you will have read yesterday and the day before on the reasoning for reintroducing Lynx and Wolves.

As I wrote, Lynx should be a simple choice. I believe that Wolves follow a similar logical route, that suggests that the reintroduction would either save or make far more money that any negatives might cost.

Brown bears are highly intelligent omnivores. They could thrive in the UK, and give much needed job opportunities in remote parts of the UK

Bears are also locally extinct in the UK, how does the arguments about reintroducing them go? Well, I would argue that actually the cost of bear reintroduction would be significantly lower.

The Cantabrian brown bear is returning, will it be allowed

Back around the 1900 there were around 1000 bears roaming the mountains of the Iberian peninsular. Unfortunately by 1950 this population had been reduced to two small populations consisting of 50-60 in one and perhaps as low as 14 individuals in the other.

Bears are recolonising prime habitat that they have not been seen in for decades, long may it last

Alongside our members area, we have a second area aimed at all readers of the site (Ambassador supporters). If you are like me, you are worried about the state of the natural world, and love seeing wildlife (however often you do) - and would like to do your bit to save as much of the natural world as you can, this is for you. We can't visit every wilderness on the planet, yet it is a far smaller task for all the readers of this site - particularly as it grows. Alternatively, if you are simply a regular reader, and we bring you value, help us survive long-term - Become an ambassador supporter (small fee), to help the running of the site, and towards our goals - along with many perks including a members area.
