Re: Wolf Reintroduction yes or no

I would love nothing more in the world than for wolves to be reintroduced into Scotland...
but there are a few things that worry me about any reintroduction attempt. First of all there would come a point when there were a large number of wolves...and then they would start culling them . The sheep in scotland are also a problem, as they wander relativley freely over the highlands without much protection or support from the farmers(not always of course, but it is often the case) .
And of course as is often said in America wolves don't respect human boundarys. Wolves often travel many,many miles when dispersing from their packs- so how long would they stay in Scotland?
I of course would love wolves roaming all over Britain, but I'm not sure others would agree
