Description  

Scottish Wildcat Action is an HLF funded partnership project with the long-term aim of restoring viable populations of Scottish wildcat in northern Scotland.

These actions include managing volunteer led camera surveys for wildcats, hybrids cats and feral cats; working with volunteers to trap-neuter-vaccinate-return hybrid and feral cats; and working with land managers to reduce risks to wildcats.
