if wildlife management /culling was practiced this surely could have been avoided

They do the same thing over here with otters mate, I have a large land drain near me that's devoid of life, in the last few years they have released at least 3 lots of otter in there,they have all been run over crossing a main road looking for food,while the people responsible pat there selves on the back for putting otters in every county of England

Sounds like a monimental disaster orchstrated by the well meaning but fcuking clueless ‘greenies’.

You can’t ‘re-wild’ a place without re-installing all the components required to attain a balance.., and without an apex predator then this is always likely to be the outcome. So management/culling is always going to be required. Like red deer in the Scottish highlands..., and how the roe population here will need soon too.

if the couldnt do a cull why no extra suplemented feeding 

[jigsaw 11,902]

Or rented days to stalkers to cull a percentage and reinvest the money back into the rest of the wildlife, just like they do in Africa and the rest of the world,

Looks like another example of mankind messing with nature and screwing it up!

Sadly the same people that have been handed the reposibility of looking after our countryside, are the same people that think all the furry animals will make friends and feed each other salad, were as the truth is nature is cruel, is based on survival of the fittest and best of all thrives on neglect without the help of cheesecloth and sander wearing  arse wipes who want to turn the countryside into a well managed petting zoo, they will just ignore the damage and move onto there well intentioned f**k up, it's happening everywhere

How did they allow the numbers to increase to such proportions in the mild years , knowing you have a fenced area and only enough grazing for a certain amount of animals it doesn’t take the greatest mind to know at some point it’s going to go tits up when you have that cold winter ..With no apex predators to control numbers it was a forgone conclusion..

You know only have to look at problems like this to know most people haven’t a ducking clue when it comes to wild animals
