Supporting documents
The Missing Lynx Project is taking a scientific and evidence-led approach to investigating whether lynx could one day return to the UK. On this page, you can find some of the technical documents that underpin our work, as well as shorter summaries and briefing notes.
Project information sheet
A three-page summary providing an overview of The Missing Lynx Project.
Social engagement and consultation
This document is a two-page summary of The Missing Lynx Project's social engagement and consultation.
Ecological research
We have produced an eight-page document summarising the original technical report, assessing whether reintroducing Eurasian lynx to Britain is ecologically feasible. You can also read the full 55-page report. To make this more accessible, we have produced a glossary of terms to accompany the full report, providing definitions that may be useful to the reader.
We have also created a document providing answers to some frequently asked questions about the project's ecological feasibility modelling.
Briefing notes
We have produced short briefing notes on several aspects of lynx reintroduction, covering issues that would need to be addressed by any future lynx reintroduction.
