Lynx to Scotland is a collaboration between three charities: SCOTLAND: The Big Picture, Trees for Life and The Lifescape Project. Since 2020, we’ve been assessing whether and how lynx could return to the Scottish landscape.
Scientific studies show that Scotland has enough habitat and wild prey to support a healthy population of lynx. But social acceptance is equally important. That’s why we’ve been exploring how people feel about bringing back Scotland’s missing lynx.

Information sessions 2026
As part of an ongoing consultation process, we will soon be hosting a series of Information Sessions in local communities surrounding Inverness – an area which has been identified as being ecologically suitable for lynx release. These sessions will provide an opportunity to find out more about lynx and join the conversation surrounding a possible reintroduction.
