EXTINCTION 2030s

 The 1860s saw the extinction of Red squirrels, the Old British fox types as well as the true wild cats and many other species through hunting'. The 1860s was a turning point in UK wildlife history and it is why we find European DNA in so many species because thousands of foxes, squirrels and other animals were imported into the UK for 'sport' otherwise we would have no larger or smaller mammals.

The 1990s was a turning point and not just through hunting but still through human activity -poisons, cars, redevelopment and destruction of habitat and pollution.

We are currently looking at foxes, badger and hedgehogs along with other species heading for extinction -and these are more nature and environment aware times. By the 2030s it is likely that with the unscientific cull wanting to kill another 20,000+ badgers, that they, hedgehogs and foxes will only be found in towns and cities and attempting to survive the dangers there.

We see many killed each week on roads cutting through their traditional travel routes and the UK is so unwilling to even provide wildlife over/underpasses at wildlife death black spots.

At the current rate foxes, badgers, hedgehogs and other mammals will have mostly disappeared by the 2040s.

Who cares?

Seemingly not politicians, developers or the British 'animal loving' population.
