Tracking The Highland Tiger: In Search of Scottish Wildcats

by Marianne Taylor Author

The Scottish Wildcat has taken on an almost mythical significance in the Highlands region. A terribly endangered animal, this feline roams the forests and mountains of Scotland, hunting mice, voles, grouse, rabbits, squirrels and more, while having to avoid poachers, endure continued habitat loss, and risk losing their unique hardiness through breeding with stray domestic cats. This book seeks to chronicle the history and ecological role of the Scottish Wildcat, weaving science together with narrative to teach the reader about this unique animal and the threats it faces. For cat lovers everywhere, this book is a fascinating and educational read.
