Should we reintroduce wolves to the UK?

Just wondering what you thought.

Here are some people who like the idea: http://www.wolftrust.org.uk/whyreintroduce.html

and here's someone who's not keen: http://users.tinyonline.co.uk/wolf.help/the%20wolf%20in%20scotland.htm

There are certainly plenty of dogs that are supposed to be wolf-dogs in the USA and Canada, and most people I've come across who have encountered them think they are bloody dangerous pets (neither one thing nor 'tother)

There was a UK government study in the 1990s that concluded that although there were a number of dogs described by their owners as 'wolf-dogs' in this country, there were only a handful that were probably genuinely of recent wolf descent, and those were living appropriately licenced as dangerous animals in wolf sanctuary type places.

I wouldnt' care to steal a wolf. Mind you, I wouldn't care to try to steal a badger either: those things are MEAN!
