An extensive and impartial study to assess people’s views about the possible reintroduction of Eurasian lynx to the Scottish Highlands is being launched this month by a new partnership of the charities SCOTLAND: The Big Picture, Trees for Life and Vincent Wildlife Trust.Ecological research has shown that extensive areas of Scotland could support lynx, but the charities say returning the shy and elusive animal is less about science and more about people’s willingness to live alongside a species that’s become forgotten on these shores.

Encore au début de l'année 2020, des chercheurs soulignaient dans une étude que les personnes qui se promènent dans la nature chaque semaine se sentent, physiquement et mentalement, mieux que les autres. Des scientifiques de l'Université d'Exeter (Angleterre) prouvent maintenant que se plonger virtuellement dans un environnement naturel est aussi bénéfique pour le bien-être.

DocBiodiv's insight:
Ok, je l'ignorais mais les Anglais ont un statut de protection pour leurs paysages qui s'intitule "Domaines d' une beauté naturelle exceptionnelle" peut-être un peu comme nos Grands Sites.En tout cas, un rapport vient de sortir qui explique que ces sites subissent de multiples pressions !
