Thousands of years ago Britain was covered by thick forests, home to many animals which no longer live in the United Kingdom. There were wolves and bears, many different kinds of deer and large wild cows. People who lived in villages were well protected by wooden walls from the animals outside.
However, all this has changed with the development of the country. Today, the United Kingdom is a country with a big population—68.5 million people live there. If you travel, most of the time you’ll be looking at towns and cities. There are very few wild animals. Britain is one of the few countries in the world that does not have a large meat-eating wild animal.
Some people would like to change such things. Some organizations and nature lovers say that Britain needs to become more natural again. They suggest that trees and plants that grew in the UK before should be allowed to grow again. They even would like to help wild animals such as bears that grew in Britain in ancient times to return and live wild. They call this “rewilding”—making things wild again.
Other people do not agree. They strongly believe that it would be too dangerous to do so. What would happen if the wild animals left their new homes to kill sheep or even attack (攻击) people? Would people still be able to go walking in the mountains which so many people enjoy?
So far there are no wolves or bears in Britain’s forests, but soon there might be!
1. What is the UK’s population?2. Can people see many wild animals while traveling in the UK?
3. What does “rewilding” mean?
4. Why do some people disagree to the idea of rewilding?
