Today we ask the question; could and should we learn to live with lynx, wolves and bears again in Britain and Ireland? This is the title of the absolutely brilliant book from Dr Jonny Hanson. Link to find it is below.

We talk to Jonny about rewilding, trophic cascades, apex predators and the moral, social, environmental and political arguments for and against reintroducing some amazing species back to the wilds of Britain and Ireland.
