Rewilding
There is an ongoing project to rewild parts of Cumbria. There is an attempt to bring back the golden eagle. The red kite is back to some extent. Work is going on to save the peatland, drainage ditches are being filled with sheep fleece to slow down water loss. I would like to see the wild cats come back to the cat bells. A wild rocky area in the Lake District. The area got its name from the cats that once lived there, they were exterminated eon’s ago. But for hundreds of years the area has been open range for Herdwick sheep. I suppose wildcats would do a job on lambs however.
