  • Support the Lynx UK Trust: The Lynx t-shirt supports the re-introduction of lynx into UK forests as well as planting 2 trees in regions devastated by wildfires like California and Australia. That means 100% of Grizzly's profits for this T-shirt go towards supporting a healthier planet.

    ________________
    Since apex predators such as lynx, bears and wolves were eradicated in the UK, deer numbers have skyrocketed. Re-introducing the lynx can ignite a chain reaction within the ecosystem and transform our forests.

    "Deer graze vegetation, until nothing is left." This hardly describes the Rate of Deforestation caused by uncontrolled deer populations, or the massive cost to people like the National Trust in Deer Proof Fencing, in places like Hatfield Forrest, Hertfordshire just to preserve parts of the forrest.

    The biggest problem in the UK in restoring wildlife back, is the rich landowners who have very powerful friends in government, they love blood sports, and so anything that will threaten their way of life is dead, the landowners have devastated the wildlife in the UK for years, they are still killing birds of prey even Eagles and nothing is done , because they have powerful friends, its shameful.

      I met a European Lynx in South Ipswich on my daily walk to my elderly Mum's house in 1996. It stayed looking at me while I smoked a cigerette, leaning on a wooden gate, about 10 mins, and less than 10 feet away. This explained why I had noticed all the regular grey squirrels had dissapeared over the previous 3 weeks.

    I hear there are compensation schemes in other European countries to cover farmers for livestock losses. It works everywhere else so can’t see it being a problem in the uk. If it weren’t for the fact that Britain is an island the lynx would already be here. I would love to see them reintroduced

    I don’t get why you are so scared of reintroducing lynx’s. We have bobcats which are about the same size in our local park they will walk right past you on the bike trails with their kittens. At one point there were 23 in a seven mile stretch. They also live in the cities like foxes do in the UK. We also have coyotes everywhere that are about the same size and run In packs.

      Where are you talking about? I think it's more to do with livestock and farmers here. Lynx mean less Roe Deer and they will kill sheep, both of these animals they like to kill, the farmers, I mean. They don't want competition with rifles. They need to let off steam and blast a deer from time to time.

    Having a factory farming of deer both native and foreign can be a solution for both humans and carnivorous animals. From human perspective if increase in deer meat takes place it might in distant future overthrow beef as the most popular source of mammal meat worlwide since deers and antelopes contribute to lesser carbon emissions than cows.As far as Animals are concerned,imagine if foreign deer species like black bucks and Cheetal along wild foreign felines like cougars and snow leopards are introduced in Britain then the diversity of creatures could increase in the region.Plus if deer population explodes in UK then variation of wild carnivores could be fed from their own breeding grounds.

      The government could, also, help farmers pay for guard dogs and compensate them, as well, for lost sheep. If any individual predator became too bothersome, he could be relocated or dealt with in a more permanent manner.

      Hello from Finland. Lynxes do not attack humans, not even in myths or fairy tales, and nobody is afraid of them. We have a population of about three thousand lynxes here in Finland, some of which are suburban. No lynx attacks on humans whatsoever. They do, however, kill sheep and goats.
