Book Launch: Living With Lynx, Dr Jonny Hanson
PAST EVENT | 23 April 2025 17:30 - 23 April 2025 19:00
Join Dr Jonny Hanson for the Oxford launch of his book, Living with Lynx: Sharing Landscapes with Big Cats, Wolves and Bears.
Wednesday 23rd April, 17:30 - 19:00, The Harold Lee Room, Pembroke College
Jonny's first book tackles a major question in conservation and rewilding: could and should we learn to live with lynx, wolves and bears again in Britain and Ireland?
He draws on his unique experience as a snow leopard conservationist and as a community farmer, as well as on over 50 interviews from seven countries.
As well as a short talk by Jonny, this launch event features readings, guest perspectives, and book signings, exploring whether reintroducing these species in Britain and Ireland is possible and desirable.
Signed copies of Living with Lynx will be available to purchase for £25 (card payments only), alongside free samples of Jonny's in-development conservation gin brand, Malawi Mountain Gin.
Jonny Hanson is an environmental social scientist at Queen's University Belfast and an award-winning social entrepreneur who set up and managed Northern Ireland’s first community-owned farm. Raised between Malawi, Africa, and Monaghan, Ireland, he has a PhD in snow leopard conservation from the University of Cambridge and is an Affiliate of the Snow Leopard Conservancy.
