England lacks a bit in comparison to Continental Europe. There are no bears, lynxes, wolves, and wolverines. England also lacks large herbivores like moose or wisent. Yes this is true. Kinda. We don't have wolverines - but we have the next, like two largest mustelids? Excluding the Giant River and Sea Otter. We don't have bears. No big dogs and only one wild cat, the Scottish Wildcat. Which is probably my favourite animal here in the UK as it's cool to have a wild feline, even if it's small in comparison to some others - it's 25% larger than the domestic Cat and a decent bit smaller than the Bobcat from N. America.  |

I do think the scottish wildcat is cool and would be a really cool thing to see in the wild. In a way smaller lesser known cats hold more mystery than the notorious big famous ones.

I always notice when they talk about feral animals they say "also they can carry diseases to native animals and livestock" and I wonder if anyone is dumb enough to think they are especially disease ridden or do they understand that applies equally to all animals? It's like they're trying to pull a swift one on idiots, are you one such idiot? |

It's like they're trying to pull a swift one on idiots, are you one such idiot? I believe it. Nonnative animals often carry diseases native animals haven't built up a natural immune response towards. For example one reason america was conquered by the Spanish was because they introduced smallpox which the natives had never been exposed to |

Going to Yellowstone in about a week. Going to do some wolf watching. And Bison are basically everywhere in Yellowstone, last year when I went seen them everywhere. I also think when considering this topic we should look at diversity vs density. For instance, Yellowstone, northern Idaho, and Montana, seem to be some of the more untouched and dense for wildlife(in USA). Decent versatility too(wolves, coyotes, raccoons, elk, moose, bison, deer, cougars, black bears, grizzly bears, badger, Wolverine, otters etc). Honestly out of the states I would say California is the most diverse. Alaska and northern Idaho are supposed to be the most wild, natural, and most wildlife out of US land. I agree with Hardcastle, I would have guessed Africa too. But that makes sense why Asia would be number one, basically has everything… the land mass and geography helps with the diversity. Canada has lots of untouched land and plenty of wildlife too. But there really isn’t a province that has everything when it comes to versatility. Montana or Idaho would have many more different species of wildlife imo. And also Canada has some really shitty dog hunting laws to top it off… lol Canada might be even worse than the UK at hunting with dogs laws. Fuck, it would be 100x better if there were NO hunting laws at all. Cali in the USA is next up too. I'd cheer if california and other states actually enforced their rule on not killing wolves |

Feral animals don't have access to the healthcare that Domestic animals have. Don't know what Hardcastle's smoking. |

I'd cheer if california and other states actually enforced their rule on not killing wolves “Oh but I need to save my cattle!” ”Oh but I need to save the elk herd” ”Oh but my house cat Mr. Whiskers!” ”Oh but my Border Collie who roamed miles into wolf country and got killed!” “Oh but, huge alaskan wolf not native! wolves here before were the size of coyotes and had imaginary boundaries to not kill livestock! the wolves here now kill for sport! oh no!” All the excuses against wolves. |
