Roy Dennis
“Of all the species in this chapter, the lynx is the one which could be introduced most easily. It would contribute markedly to ecosystem functions by hunting and disturbing roe deer, as well as acting as a potential apex predator on middle-guild mammal predators such as fox, badger and marten, which are now very common. It would also restore an iconic and charismatic large cat, the size of a small labrador dog, to its former Scottish range, which could bring real ecotourism benefits. The proposal has been talked about since the early 1990s - over the years, the feasibility research on the species has been of the highest standard - and it's a disgrace to UK wildlife conservation that the species is still absent.”
Roy Dennis, Restoring the Wild: Sixty Years of Rewilding Our Skies, Woods and Waterways

Aldo Leopold
“The hope of the future lies not in curbing the influence of human occupancy – it is already too late for that – but in creating a better understanding of the extent of that influence and a new ethic for its governance.”
Aldo Leopold, Game Management
