Wolves, lynxes, and (used to be) bears

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

Wolves have been extinct in Britain since 1680. Bears in 500 AD. Lynxes, at best, in the 1700s, going by reported sightings, but possibly even in 600 AD, going by proven examples.

What the fuck are you talking about?

Well, it's worse than I was aware of then. I am not British and just thought of animals that at least were there. I'm guessing there isn't anything that will eat deer there anymore.
