the problem about introducing them will be they will monitor them, for a few years, then once they start becoming a pest they will refuse to do anything (very much like the badger problem, they protected them and have refused to do anything in order to keep the population from fluctuating to an extent where they're causing the environment more harm than good). Anyway won't it imbalance the environment more? Why can't people leave things the way they're and shoot the animals which are getting out of control, without introducing an animal which will imbalance the environment further? Another issue is that with lynx's it would be very difficult to control the population, why don't they think it all through and ask everyone, not just people who have no concept of what nature is?! I oppose the motion strongly!
