People already live alongside predators in India and Kenya – here’s how it could work in Scotlandtheconversation.com/people-already-live-alongside-predators-in-india-and-kenya-heres-how-it-could...Scotland is one of the most wildlife-depleted countries in the world. Yet, no reintroduction is on the cards.Prejudice against large predators still runs deep, especially among farmers regardless of any tangible benefits that predators could bestow even on farmers themselves. The recent downgrading of the legal protection afforded to the wolf in continental Europe is a case in point.In Rajasthan, farmers share an arid landscape with tigers, leopards, striped hyenas, jackals, sloth bears and the occasional Indian wolf. This is even more impressive because Rajasthan has an average population density which is several times higher than that of Scotland.Leopards prey almost exclusively on cattle in the absence of wild animals which are their usual prey, such as deer. Shepherds never retaliate, and culling of some cattle is generally accepted. Thanks to their tolerance, the increasing leopard population has enabled the emergence of a thriving ecotourism industry.Big predators are also a draw for tourists. In Kenya, ecotourism alone constitutes approximately 10% of its GDP. The reintroduction of large predators in Scotland could further enhance its potential as an ecotourism destination, offset potential costs due to loss of heads of cattle and even benefit Scottish farmers and rural landowners both from an environmental and economic perspective.Scotland is the most sparsely populated country in the UK. With vast areas of wilderness, it has enough space to accommodate both big predators and farmers for the benefit of all and become the Yellowstone of Europe. ... See MoreSee Less

Feds disarm hunters’ bid to narrow gray wolf ESA listingstinyurl.com/2s3ru9a2The Fish and Wildlife Service rejected proposals Tuesday to narrow Endangered Species Act protections for certain gray wolf populations.In a related pair of decisions, the agency dismissed one petition to designate and delist a “Western Great Lakes” wolf population. It also rejected a separate petition to designate a “West Coast States” gray wolf population and move its status from endangered to threatened while also removing ESA protections altogether from gray wolves in the remaining lower 48 states.“The petitioners failed to present substantial information for us to conclude that the petitions, considered together, provide a valid approach for revising the current gray wolf listed entities,” the agency stated. ...
