Traditional Cattle
We have been very involved in extolling the
positive values of using native cattle to benefit
nature conservation, especially within woodlands. We are a great supporter of increasing the numbers and range of traditional cattle because we believe they
 are essential for habitat restoration and the functioning of ecosystems in the UK. 

Lynx
We have been a champion of restoring the Lynx
 to Scotland and consider it to be an important and essential step in ecological restoration. We made a
major contribution to this debate, by providing funds
for David Hetherington to start examining this project,
which led on to him completing his PhD at Aberdeen University on 'The feasibility of reintroducing the Lynx
to Scotland. Further information will be provided here
in the future.

Red Squirrel
We have examined three cases where landowners
 with suitable woods, but isolated from the present squirrel range, have wished to translocate squirrels.
 Our advice was that these cases would make a real contribution to red squirrel conservation. An initial application was not approved by SNH but we intend
to bring forward these projects.

Elk (Moose)
We continue to be involved, mainly through lectures and media comment,
in the possibility of restoring lost species such as elk.
 

Wolf
We continue to be involved, mainly through lectures and media comment,
in the possibility of restoring lost species such as wolf.
 

Brown bear
We continue to be involved, mainly through lectures and media comment,
 in the possibility of restoring lost species such as brown bear.
 

Wild boar
We are involved in the use of wild boar for habitat manipulation in fenced enclosures
 and believe they are important in ecology restoration. We are also interested in
escaped populations  in the UK.
