Lynx, beavers and aurochs return to Highlands - Feddit UK

Trees for Life is to launch a pioneering ‘missing species programme’ to bring back four of Scotland’s lost keystone animals – lynx, beavers, red squirrels, and modern-day aurochs – to the Scottish Highlands. The plans aim to tackle the nature and climate emergencies while generating significant benefits for communities, including through nature tourism. This ambitious programme will require £3.6m to fund its first five years and achieve its aims, including for detailed habitat assessments and community engagement to meet Scotland’s strict licensing requirements.
