Lynx: communities in Highland and Moray invited to discuss reintroduction

Tuesday 6 January, 2026

A wide-ranging community and stakeholder discussion on the potential reintroduction of lynx to northern Scotland is being launched this month by the Lynx to Scotland partnership.

Dozens of events in Highland and Moray will offer information and gather local views on the benefits and concerns that would come with the species’ return.

Lynx to Scotland is a partnership between charities SCOTLAND: The Big Picture, Trees for Life, and The Lifescape Project.
