Wildcats and golden eagles could be reintroduced in England and beavers could be released into the wild more widely, the Government has indicated. As part of efforts to boost wildlife, a taskforce will be set up to look at bringing back species which have long been lost from England and introduce declining species into new areas, Environment Secretary George Eustice has said. In a speech from Delamere Forest, Cheshire, where beavers are being kept in a fenced enclosure to manage habitat, Mr Eustice also said the Government was “looking positively” towards the reintroduction of the semi-aquatic mammals. Beavers, hunted to extinction in Britain by the 16th century, have already returned to live free on the River Otter in Devon in England and a number of other waterways, as well as in enclosures in many counties.
