and nods in a agreement with Sooty
I agree , mink have done so much damage to the local wildlife...especially the poor water voles...
The grey squirrels have all but eliminated the reds from all but a few small pockets of this country...
Even so I can't condone plans to cull them...
Introductions or reintroductions have unforseen consequences...
I wonder what impact the reintroduction of the red kite in some areas will have...they have been so successful but not dispersing as much as was first hoped...
They have asked people to stop feeding them in the hope that they will move further afield in search of food...
.It is wonderful to see them soaring in the skies again....but I can't help but wonder what their impact will be on being so successful and what other species will suffer ....
No discernable negative affect as yet...
Just came across this, talking about the reintroducing of species and its impact...
We watched a documentary about the boar in the Forest of Dean the other day...
