BEAUTIFUL WILDCAT VIDEO
Hi All
Time is flying and we have had a very busy and productive few weeks. Our fieldwork efforts are really going well. We are finding new wildcats which is extremely promising, surveying new areas and are now operating over vast tracts of land. Crucially we are developing a fantastic network of people who live in the local communities and can help expand the areas we cover, as well provide intelligence on where wildcats might be.
Above is a video of a wonderful wildcat living free. It’s an absolute beauty, great nape and shoulder stripes, clear dorsal stripe and a blunt, ringed tail. It gives us a thrill every time to see these wonderful animals. They are so graceful and they deserve the right to live and breed in peace
Be in no doubt, populations of these animals still exist, and we will continue to find, monitor and protect every single one of them. The Government has written off the wild population and is currently involved in a 5 million pound project to captive breed and release apparent wildcats (many of them look hybridised), when the wildcat still exits in the wild. It defies logic. We continue to be the only organisation solely dedicated to protecting in the wild where it belongs.
Enjoy the video and there are a lot more updates to follow. We have more wildcats to show you, an important update on Finlay and a crucial update on our work in the Clashindarroch.
Keep watching and thanks for your continuing support.
Very best wishes as always
The Wildcat Haven Team.
