You would have to be of a certain age :)

But yes are Bears  going to be next , maybe Lynx or Wolf  ?

The next rewilding project after the success of Sea Eagle and Beaver is to be the Wildcat

Locally , it may have also been in other areas , we have seen the reintroduction of the Red Kite . A magnificant bird of prey that can now be seen  daily soaring in the skies above the downlands to the south of London .

So what should be the  next rewilding project ?

Where I live there seems to be competition on the lines of I can get a bigger dog than yours. My neighbour's dog is 65 kilos in weight, and it isn't fat.
Yeah but your neighbour is Henry Baskerville

I likke kites, although the ones we see tend to be less birds of prey than nature's vacuum cleaners. They (the kites, not the vacuum cleaners) eat anything.

What I would like to see are a few mongrels. When I was a lad dogs were let out of the house in the morning and pottered around the streets until dinner time. The result was a lot of ads in shop windows offering puppies to a good home and lots of delighted children. But these days all I see are pure breeds, which are well enough, but at the end of the day mostly toy dogs.

I am all in favour of rewilding, it would hack off the right to roam types.

Who ever wrote the article needs to go back to school, 2 centuries is not 500 years and 60 isn't really measured in dozens. 
Apart from that very interesting, I hope they don't just end up squashed on the roads. 
I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you.
