As the funding is now being slashed for CONservation hooliganism these
days, perhaps we will see a decline in the fabricated grant seeking
scare stories about wildlife decline, and let Britains diverse
species and habitat be!

Which would be great for the vast majority of the population who enjoy
grey squirrels, ruddy ducks etc.

I love grey squirrels, even if they do drive me mad watching them come
back and forwards
like something possessed in my garden.

Did anyone see autumn watch where someone may be introducing Wild
Boars
into The Forest Of Dean?
They could have introduced a few Red Squirrels while theyre at it ;-)

Itd probably be a waste of time and money reintroducing red squirrels into
the Forest of Dean, because theyd be unlikely to survive. Wild Boars seem
to thrive in the wild in the UK as it is now, however. Hence theyre likely
to be condemned as pests.

Good for you, but for a large number of the damned things they are a pest
which causes a lot of damage, and I always encourage anyone to kill the
damned things.

I would encourage the return of the red squirrel!

Ironically, when red squirrels were plentiful in the UK, they, too, were
classed as vermin, and described as tree rats, and were the subject of
organised pest control campaigns.

The Wild Boar have been in the Forest of Dean a few years now, they are
thought to have escaped from a local heard?flock?sty?

I have red squirrels in my garden, (Formby) they are so sweet, if we see a
grey, we have to report it and the ranger goes and kills the nasty American
pest!

to see them if you live outside the northwest, go to BBC site, the Nature of
Britain site, and look on the where you live section, click on the + sign
just over Liverpool, and zoom in until details appear, then you can see the
cute little rats with tails!

The same issues apply equally to reds. In fact it wasnt so long ago
that they had a bounty on their heads up North and were brought almost
to extinction because of it, and habitat decline.

The red problems have nothing to do with the greys despite what the
CONservation hooligans would tell us.
