Merlin Posted November 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2010 Beavers have been extinct in Britain for 400yrs. Chris Packem says reports of the first breeding pair are true and have been filmed. This was shown on Autumn Watch last night, now if they ARE EXTINCT in Britain then they can't be here can they Monsta? I mean they can't have been released into the wild or escaped from somewhere can they? I mean they've been extinct for 400yrs in Britain. Ringing any bells yet Monsta :dribble: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ringing any bells yet Monsta :dribble:only difference being there were reintroduced a few years ago the lynx has not! and my agument was that lynx were not common and have be extinict in england and the uk for a long time ( yes there are escapees but there is no breeding population) there is talks to try and reintroduce them! but mercuryg keeps changing his argument!! good look to the beavers hopefully they'll make a comeback (gaint rats that knaw down trees!)

mercuryg Posted November 5, 2010 Report Share Posted November 5, 2010 my agument was that lynx were not common and have be extinict in england and the uk for a long time ( yes there are escapees but there is no breeding population) there is talks to try and reintroduce them! but mercuryg keeps changing his argument!! No I don't! where have I ever changed my stance on the matter? It began with me saying I believe there are escaped animals in England, that's still my stance on the matter, I have never done anythign but agree fully that native lynx have been extinct in th UK for centuries - and still are - and never mentioned anything about reintroducing them at all. I also never said they were common, in fact quite the opposite. I even concluded that the likelihood of a breeding population of escaped or discraded animals is slim. I haven't changed my argument at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merlin Posted November 22, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 22, 2010 Another sighting, though this is a strange one. Big Cat sighted on the green outside Choppington first school at 4am. Large, much bigger than domestic moggy, large pointy ears with tufts, light coloured legs and tan mottled body with stumpy tail. Hard to believe this one, but came from a reliable source!
