Bringing back lynx and wolves would control deer numbers ?

 

 

Well it worked in yellowstone keystone species  that controls the whole ecosytem etc.

Not unsurprisingly you forget that we farm livestock in the UK.

Yes. And we also farm an aweful lot of cannabis in this country, hence large number of unlicensed hand guns about.  Would love to see boar n lynx n pine martens running abt, in all the new tree plantings we are supposed to be doing. Fvvk the ( heavily subsidised) farmers, they always moan. K

Cannabis farms and handguns ?‍♂️?‍♂️You smoking it right now ?? Inner city criminal firearms use is statistically far far more prevalent than anything that occurs in the countryside or rural locations. You need to get that diving holiday booked and get some high PPO2 into you to clear your head. 
The era of predators you describe wandering the countryside is long gone. What was the population of the UK last time we had such animals in the wild as opposed to now??. 
Regarding  subsidies and farmers I’d probs not disagree too much but until we are willing to pay a lot more for food then it’s gonna be that way.

No . I work in Rail with random drug and alcohol testing. As anyone would be well aware. K

I think a lot of things changed after Micheal Ryan went bonkers in Hungerford   in 1987 .  I could be wrong but this lead to the withdrawal of any hand guns  and auto rifles and I think the " crimping " of auto and pump shot guns so that you could only load with 3 shells instead of 5 .

Hungerford was semi not auto rifles 

Dunblane was pistols inc Olympic 22 target pistols courtesy of Blair. Shotgun capacity was restricted to 2+1 unless on an FAC at the same time as semi auto rifles went sect 5

Random D & A is everywhere nowadays. It was more a comment aimed at the at the scene you painted of cannabis farms and pistol toting drug dealers all over the Countryside ?
