Acerca de esta escucha

This book investigates a vital and controversial question for conservation and rewilding in Britain and Ireland: could and should we learn to live with lynx, wolves and bears again? We travel back in time, around the world and into the future to explore this contested topic. The author delves deep into the human psyche, considering not only his own mixed feelings about large carnivore reintroductions but also why people have such polarised perspectives on top predators. He brings his unique combination of expertise on snow leopards–and their relationship with humans–along with his experience as a farmer to illustrate the discussion.

Along the way, we meet a cast of characters from across society, including farmers, rewilders and everyone in between. It becomes clear that coexisting with large carnivores is as much about sharing landscapes with each other as it is about sharing them with wildlife.

The first book to tackle this subject in detail, based on more than 50 interviews from seven countries, Living with Lynx will be of relevance to anyone with an interest in the future of nature, farming and the countryside. Personal, detailed, unflinching and engaging, it adds a great deal to this rapidly evolving debate.

“Perhaps everything that frightens us is, in its deepest essence, something helpless that wants our love,” Rainer Maria Rilke gifted the world in 1929, weaving around the zoomagical figure of a dragon. Yet, it took almost 100 years for a writer to locate this experience of fear, essence, helplessness, hunger, and longing for belonging in the present-tense bodies of apex predators, specifically large carnivores who are as targeted for slaying as dragons and just as vulnerable to being rendered into myth. Gifted as a healing hand to a hard ecological season, Dr Jonny Hanson’s ‘Living with Lynx’ braids a complex, palimpsest of memory, myth, monstrosity, and cultural history with live, experienced, first-hand scientific research on the subject of apex predators in the anthropocene, as well as the stakes, financial costs, social expenses, risks, warnings, and long-term ecological harvests of reintroducing large carnivores to the landscapes of Britain and Ireland. Richly argued, exquisitely structured, and as compellingly accessible as knife to page, or tooth to vein, ‘Living with Lynx’ reads with balance, vivacity, creativity, and ultimately unwavering compassion for “everything that frightens us”— a narrative odyssey that starts in the wild and ends in a mirror. To those in search of equally thought-provoking, scientifically-backed, creative, and lovely environmental/ social-science writing (in the traditions of Rachel Carson, Robin Wall Kimmerer, Mary Roach, Bill Bryson, and Peter Wohlleben), gift yourself this journey. May you find, as I did, big teeth, bigger claws, and the courage to embrace them all.
