While I was by the river I saw our female otter slinking into the water with one of our water voles in it's mouth.. hmmm. What next the red kite taking them as well. Who protects the protected from the protected?

Unfortunately that is the food chain. In the wild large litters are for prey animals of which only one might survive to breed. It is man and his ways that makes animals extinct. No animal makes another extict.

Yes, last time the man from FWAG was here he thought we needed to keep both the otters and the water voles in isolated seclusion, I think the presence of our slightly mad collie made him think that we may disturb them. They seem to be doing OK on the SSSI land which can only be grazed by horses and cattle, neither of which we have. No sheep as they would play on the yellow meadow ant hills.
