A wolverine at Whipsnade zoo. The animal, a member of the mustelid family, will be part of the Bristol exhibit along with lynx. Photograph: Courtesy of ZSL Whipsnade Zoo Dr Christoph Schwitzer, the chief zoological officer, is pleased that even before next week’s public opening, Bear Wood is provoking such debate. The zoo is proud of its conservation projects that range from trying to bolster gorilla populations in central Africa to reintroducing white-clawed crayfish to the UK.

Most bear species make vocalizations that sound like a huff, chomp, woof, growl, and/or bark which mean the bear is agitated, angry or annoyed. A bawl, bellow, squeal or whimper indicates pain. A mumble, hum, or purr indicates contentment. Of the four Bear Wood creatures, only the wolf was left by 1086 and a mere 15% of Britain was covered by woods. Wolves were hunted to extinction by the 16th or 17th century and now only 2% of Britain is covered in ancient woodland.When the keepers judge the time is right the wolves will be allowed into the joint enclosure, though they will be able to retreat without the bears following them if they feel the need.

Introducing the bears and wolves to each other will be a delicate process. “You have to observe rules,” said Schwitzer. “You can’t just throw them in together.”Woof! App lets you "woof" at other bears nearby. It has a handy selector, so you can woof normally, woof sexily, woof 60's style, woof assertively, or just give a Woofalicious! It will also be interesting to see how the bears and wolves operate as summer gives way to autumn and winter. It is not clear whether the bears will dig themselves into a den and hibernate.

Quite when native British bears became extinct is not known. Bears were a familiar sight in Roman and medieval times but they may have been imported.

Bears have several types of vocalizations. Some species vocalize more than others.

It too once roamed British woodland before disappearing, presumably hunted for its fur and meat. A handful of wolverine bones have been found in Britain, more than half of them in south-west England and south Wales.
