Tha deasbad air èirigh mu bhi a' toirt ais chun a' Ghàidhealtachd beathaichean a bha aig aon am beò ann bho cho-dhùin an EU gum bu choir beachdachadh air gnè bheathaichean a bha dualach do sgìrean a' thilleadh thuca , ' ma bha sin comasach. Tha sgrìobhadairean Gàidhlig òga a' beachdachadh air a chuis anns an t-sreath seo. Le sùil gun deach a' madadh-allaidh mu dheireadh an Alba a' mharbhadh faisg air am Blàr Chùl-lodair tha Catrìona Lexy Chaimbeul a' coimhead tomhais de cheangal eadar sin agus a cheist a thaobh a bhi a' cuir fàilte oirre air ais. Young Gaelic writers consider the possible reintroduction of extinct species into the Highlands. An EU directive states that animal species once indigenous to, but now extinct from, rural regions of Europe should be reintroduced wherever possible. It's led to a great deal of debate about what is in line for a comeback to the Scottish Highlands. Most talked about for reintroduction is the wolf. The last one is reputed to have been killed in the same decade as Culloden. Writer Catriona Lexy Campbell detects a symbolic connection between these two events and considers whether it should return.
