Pine martin release on dartmoor.

[Woody girl]

Some great news that 15 Pine Martins have been released on Dartmoor. 8 females, and 7 males. They became extinct in the south west nearly a hundred years ago, so this is brilliant news.
Next year, (2025) they hope to do a similar release on Exmoor.
I'm so excited to hear this. I've never been lucky enough to see one, so here is hoping the near future might give me an opportunity to get another bucket list item ticked off.

That's great! I'm so pleased to hear a good news story for wildlife.
Thanks for letting us know.
Let's hope they have enough habitat to thrive.

It’s great news.
I’m not sure how soon you’ll see one. A Scott’s forester told me that you can live in the same woods and never see one.
It’s great to know that they are there though.

I saw one this summer, very lucky.
