Golden Eagles and wildcats are among the animals which could once again live in England, under new rewilding plans announced by the government.
A new “species reintroductions task force”, run by Natural England will examine how to bring back species lost due to human activities, restore natural habitats, and aim to meet new legally binding biodiversity targets to reverse the decline of wildlife.
As well as species reintroductions, action will be taken to boost populations of vulnerable animals through releases of declining species in new areas. This will be done for species including the pine marten, dormice, corncrake, short-haired bumblebee and large blue butterfly.
The new legislation will be brought in under amendments to the government’s long-awaited environment bill.
Wow, this sounds quite ambitious: it seems that they're planning to introduce quite a lot of species here!
I just hope they don't end up creating problems for existing species in the process ...
