TIGHTCHOKE Posted Monday at 11:45 Report Share Posted Monday at 11:45 Not yet. I had long wondered if this sort of thing went on and there is the evidence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MirokuMK70 Posted Monday at 12:00 Report Share Posted Monday at 12:00 I suspect the same thing went on with otters prior to this... Hence why we now have an overpopulation causing havoc on our waterways and fisheries Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hence why we now have an overpopulation causing havoc on our waterways and fisheries Yep that was my thoughts years of protecting other endangered species eg water voles undone by 1 act of environmental vandalism! every action like this could have a devastating impact Releasing a predator with nothing to control it’s numbers is going to end badly!

mellors Posted Monday at 12:33 Report Share Posted Monday at 12:33 Its already out of control whoever is doing it. I've seen what beavers can do once they spread to uncontrolled areas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agriv8 Posted Monday at 16:13 Author Report Share Posted Monday at 16:13 What is it Dichy or William Roach who has a Druid look about them? So some eco nut decides they are going to rewild a beaver with no consultation or impact assessment. yet everyone else that is impacted by this act of eco terrorism has to just put up and shut up . seems a bit one sided to me Agriv8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pine Marten have now been officially released in the Grizedale area and I can tell you that the red squirrel groups aren't happy about it. The reporter clearly knows his stuff, lamping is about disorientating rabbits? I always thought it was so the dog could see it 😅 I've seen a few videos now of excavators being needed to remove damns in Scotland, can't imagine why farmers don't want flooded fields, they'll just have to grow rice! 4 hours ago, MirokuMK70 said: I suspect the same thing went on with otters prior to this... Hence why we now have an overpopulation causing havoc on our waterways and fisheries Have a Google of Otters in Ulverston, they made the news recently as they've been clearing people's ponds of fish, with folk saying its just nature, no sympathy for the thousands of pounds that people have spent on fish.

old man Posted Monday at 18:24 Report Share Posted Monday at 18:24 Possibly this lunacy started with the attitudes surrounding the initial criminal releases of farmed mink? I don't ever remember officialdom being bothered enough to allocate any thoughts to pursuing the criminals doing it? Fits in entirely with the politicos attitude of not being bothered other than about the full trough? This attitude just filters downwards?

It seems to be the current "minority group" attitude pushed by wokism - you are a minority so are special and have to get your own way/special treatment and the rest just have to suck it up or they are an *****ist.
