Since 1991, Vilden has both practiced and taught wild-living skills. [4] [5] Since around 2000, she has run a series of intensive rewilding workshops that she calls "Stone Age projects" in various locations in the US and Europe. [3] In them, participants learn how to make shoes, hunting tools, shelters and how to start fires. [3] [6]
Eurasian lynxes also have some of the longest lifespans of the Lynx species, living for up to 17 years in the wild. A lack of natural predators when and a wider range of food options feature in ...
The lynx population in Finland was 1900–2100 individuals in 2008, and the numbers have been increasing every year since 1992. The lynx population in Finland is estimated currently to be larger than ever before. [36] Lynx in Britain were wiped out in the 17th century, but there have been calls to reintroduce them to curb the numbers of deer. [37]

The Eurasian lynx (Lynx lynx) is one of the four extant species within the medium-sized wild cat genus Lynx. It is widely distributed from Northern, Central and Eastern Europe to Central Asia and Siberia, the Tibetan Plateau and the Himalayas.

Lynx disappeared from Scotland between 500 and 1,300 years ago possibly because of hunting and loss of their woodland habitat. Efforts to reintroduce the cats to the wild have been underway since at least 2021 when a group calling itself Lynx to Scotland commissioned a study of public attitudes toward the proposal.
The Iberian lynx genetically diverged as a unique species 1.98 to 0.7 million years ago. Its closest living relative is the Eurasian lynx (Lynx lynx) with which it coexisted to a certain degree until the 20th century. [14] [15]
