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

That is an excellent point you raise! Admittedly wolves only got domesticated into dogs once or twice (I think they estimate) throughout human history, but it might be more likely in a small crowded island. Mmmm.... I wouldn't be so keen if my packs of wolves roaming the wild places turned into packs of feral dogs roaming the suburbs! Especially if, as the Marquis points out, we probably wouldn't be allowed to destroy them. On the other hand, I'm not really aware of urban foxes being a problem -- I imagine they must exist in many of the places I've lived, but I've hardly ever seen them. - Neuromancer
