Its of course a captive one sadly, though it is the male of a regular breeding pair so they must feel settled to breed. There is talk of re introduction of lynx in to remote areas, and being a particular favourite of mine I would love to see that, but I fear its all hot air, it will never happen!!!! The fact that they were here and we wiped them out centuries ago means we could legally re introduce them, but as with so many species, the authorities take far more notice of the whinging minorities than the people who would like to see the animals our ancestors wiped out here again. We already have IDIOTS wanting to control the numbers of whitetailed eagles just a few years after their re introduction. If we were to cull anything I say we start with idiots !!!! Here I shall take a deep breath to prevent a full scale rant......................... ;o))
