    That is fantastic news. Had two great (albeit a little scary) encounters with wild animals in Germany in the past, and the idea of someday being back in Germany and seeing a bison, from a distance, roaming freely is something that really appeals to me in the same manner as when I first saw a White Tailed Sea Eagle in the wild in Ireland.

    Absolutely. I think I'll find it hard not to look up flights to Germany when the reintroduction happens myself! It's a great reminder of the benefits of conservation and proof that it can all be worthwhile.

    They are advanced plans to re-introduce this species to Northern Spain too. The Cantabrian Mtns in Northern Spain was identified as perfect habitat with wolves and bears already present:cool:

    Oh, I hadn't heard about that. That's great news! Now I'll have to resist the temptation to go to Spain as well....
