I have to say this is all rather ridiculous. Are we to dismiss the expert views of Mr Warburton and the extremely persuasive arguments and, let us not forget, evidence that he presents within this article? Does the presence of some exclamation marks indicate that it is not somehow 'serious'? Please...
There is archaeological and historical/cultural evidence that this species has been around in Britain for an awfully long time; the species is more than capable of making long flights over waterbodies; the species can and does move long distances regularly; and the species is not the child- and pet-devouring anti-Christ.
I for one am inclined to take Mr Warburton at his word and bow to his greater expertise on this matter - his posts here have been informative and persuasive and I really just cannot see why this species in particular seems to be the subject of so much negativity in regard to its 'expertly appointed' status.
