Seems a rather weird move, Woburn's females are both 17 now and are no spring chickens, maybe they were moved out so Woburn could acquire new Lynx/new species.

Would not mind if they go into Carpathian lynx and / or Scottish wild cats (if they do not have the latter yet ... forgive us for thinking so if they do do ...).

They have Scottish wildcats, Carpathian lynx maybe just to special yet.

Why would Carpathian Lynx be too special for this,collection given some of the deer species that they have,they certainly have a very good reputation within the zoo community for how they keep those species.So if they did want to keep Carpathian lynx I don't think they would have to many problems,finding a collection that would be happy to send them some!

I wonder what the survival rate for Barasingha born in Scotland might be? Its a tropical grassland species and the calves often dns in cold/wet conditions.
