A new Scottish Wildcat Survey has been launched. Scottish Natural Heritage is calling on visitors and workers in the outdoors to be alert for any sightings of our most elusive predator, the Scottish Wildcat, Felis silvestris. SNH believes people using the countryside for work or leisure in 2008 can play a key role in helping the plight of one of Scotland’s rarest and most secretive mammals.
