Wolf trust to host talks on the possibility of re-introducing wolves into the wild
 

A SEMINAR in Ufton Nervet on Sunday (September 30) will discuss the possibility of re-introducing wolves into the wild.
The UK Wolf Conservation Trust, based in Beenham, is hosting its annual seminar at Ufton Court and has invited three wildlife experts to discuss the possibility of introducing the predators to Britain.
The group of experts will talk about how successful reintroduction can be and what is being done to return lost species to the wilds of Britain.
In January this year, a study suggested that reinstating wild wolves to the Scottish Highlands would help the local eco-system by controlling the large number of red deer.
The wolf population in Scotland was hunted to extinction in the late 1700s and the research team said that lowering deer numbers by re-introducing wolves would mean plants and birds could flourish once again.
The debate surrounding the re-establishment of wolves in the Scottish wilds has lasted for some time, with farmers saying that the predators would destroy their livestock.
The event in Ufton Nervet runs from 9.30am to 4.30pm.
