Gilbey 1,405 Posted November 25, 2019 Report Share Posted November 25, 2019 No bother, time will tell. Don't know if you were being serious about the 15+ cats, but who had so many cats and why? Do you really believe something as big as that would stay quiet for long? If it had of happened it would of been great for the reintroduction argument, but nothing mentioned 4 hours ago, Greyman said: The government have rejected the release but the animals have been here for a while from what I can gather, the big guy with the beard who seems to be in charge of the project has a habit of pissing people off i,m told and is pretty uncompromising in his plans that has led to the project being put on hold, I am not worried about re releasing them as they are already here and do alright but I was interested to see if the captive tracked animals met up with a wild mate would they hush it up or admit the truth Link to post Share on other sites

Its amazing how they can get decent pictures of wild lynx in Spain, even when numbers were very low and the population was in the most remote areas they were able to track, see and record them, but then over there they actually exist..........................................

I don’t no why I even bother with pricks like you but one more try if you watched the program you would notice many of them had tracking collars on them same as pumas in the us and other such rarity,s once you have a few years of tracking data it’s very easy to predict were they will be at what times of year were as I have to do it all by my lonesome whilst trying to earn a living, fund everything myself and deal with a never ending stream of bellends 6 1 3 Link to post Share on other sites

The local farmers can track them and then phone their neighbours on their mobiles to tell him to get the sheep in as the bear is entering their sector. 99.999% of all professional wildlife photography is set up or fake.

That one lynx from the zoo was all over the news. And other things the nutters release are all over the news had a quick look on the web for any rta's at bait time, no cats just a wallaby from the bird of prey place Link to post Share on other sites

shaaark 10,109 Posted November 26, 2019 Report Share Posted November 26, 2019 (edited) My view on big cats in britain is pretty simple. While there may or may not be an actual established breeding population of any particular species, there are enough ignorant, misguided individuals that do keep them, then release them when they realise they can't cope, for whatever reason. And on top of that you get the not infrequent zoo/wildlife park etc escapees. And again, let's not forget, that to all the people that go on about licencing etc, of dangerous pets/animals etc, murder is illegal in this country, heroin, crack cocain etc etc is illegal, but HALF THE COUNTRY is taking allsorts of shit, and there's a murder every other week! If someone wants something enough, laws aint gonna stop them Edited November 26, 2019 by shaaark 5 Link to post Share on other sites
