I think the reintroduction is a great idea, after all its worked in other countries successfully so why not in the UK. The only issue is the public's perception of our lost wild animals. You only have to look at the bad press the wild boar has had in recent months as well as the beaver (which was recently turned down for reintroduction by the Scottish parliament). Better education and information is needed to clarify any negative preconceptions the general public and farmers may have on the wolf in order for the reintroduction to have any real momentum.
