Apex predators present =
only a tiny fraction as much TB in livestock.
Will farm orgs now get behind reintroductions?
*Highly* unlikely.

Will farm orgs now get behind reintroductions?
*Highly* unlikely.
A 2019 study showed 57% presence of TB in wild boars in Córdoba, an area without wolves and only 2.6% in areas of Galicia +Asturias with a wolf population. Conclusion: wolves exercise sanitary role, positive for livestock farmers, by predating sick animals

During good times, there's always some ambitious new bullshit candy at stores, usually sounds borderline inedible like "cherry cola m&ms" or "gummy marshmallows" but during a downturn, either the "new" products are reintroductions from years past or cosmetic-only like "blue colored cream oreos"

Bravo. This was always a hope with many of the enclosed populations. Of course they were superseded by escapees and wild reintroductions, but this is still good.
After more than two decades of conservation work, Kent Wildlife Trust has removed the beaver enclosure barrier at Ham Fen Nature Reserve, allowing beavers to move freely in the wild and play their role as ‘ecosystem engineers’ across the wider landscape.

Compare and contrast coverage of illegal wildlife reintroductions to that of illegal wildlife killings.
After this heartbreaking incident, NPWS said it deplores the deliberate killing of rare and endangered species and takes bird of prey persecutions very seriously.
Members of the public with any information can contact the NPWS by emailing wildlifeenforcement@npws.gov.ie.

The Red Kite is one of our greatest conservation success stories. They were extinct in 🏴 and 🏴 with only a few individuals left in 🏴. After successful reintroductions, their numbers have exploded! It's great to see these beautiful raptors back! #bird #birdphotography #eastcoastkin #birdoftheday

The same can be said of many other proposed avian reintroductions - especially of migratory species.

But zoos and raptor centers are almost always hurting for space and facilities for captive breeding, and reintroductions to the wild can be difficult, so they aren’t a priority. But Fox has all the licenses to work with endangered species and is breeding them now at the Foxloft Vulture Center.

How cool was that! They are environmental engineers with successful reintroductions. Part of my job included Erosion Control Certification in the State of Maine which allowed streamlining the 14 day Permit by Rule notifications with the DEP.
Basically I was taught what beavers achieve naturally.

BBRC now has to consider the possibility of illegal guerilla reintroductions for Black Stork origins #UKBirding
#norfolkbirding
TG42 has seen four Black Storks.
First was Eccles Apr 2011, then Waxham May 2011, Hickling Priory & the current bird.
Here’s the 2011 Eccles bird & the 2026 bird (pic @winterdune).
The current bird may perhaps be of dubious origin (?) but still great to see.

Rewilding can involve reintroductions
But, despite the PR, many reintroductions are not rewilding
A rewilding justification needs to examine what functions & processes the reintroduction will enhance

I’m for legal & well-organised reintroductions but against ‘guerilla reintroductions’ by people who should know better
That was my point
Wolves are a seperate issue but we need to be aware that claims they would significantly reduce deer are not well substantiated

"The political case for reintroductions [of predators] is weak"
This is true, and nature conservation is deeply political. I think the way forward is to not see such projects in isolation but as part of a wider transformation of economies and societies

How lynx and wolf reintroductions to Britain could be shaped by preconceptions and psychology
Psychology may shape the success of carnivore reintroductions much more than ecology, politics, economics and philosophy ever can.
