The Last of The Scottish Wildcats

Post by beadmom »

Pretty interesting.

"The Last Of The Scottish Wildcats. A documentary exploring the imminent extinction of Britain's last native cat. Far back in the history of Scotland, clans formed together under the image of the wildcat and fought wars for independence of the land. Today less than 400 Scottish wildcats remain in the wild and the extinction of Britain's last large mammal predator could come within the next decade."

Yes, Felix sylvestris. An interesting animal. I like how people refer to it as the "Highland Tiger"! :)
