The fauna of Os Ancares includes some endangered species, such as the capercaillie, the bear and the marten. |
Birdwatchers come to Scotland to spot golden and sea eagles, the rare and large-billed Scottish crossbill, and the rare capercaillie. |
Some animals, such as red squirrels and capercaillie, suffered from swiddening as well as the felling of timber in general. |
I am pleased that at long last the Executive seems to recognise that it is a very effective predator of the capercaillie. |
Wolf, roe deer and wild boar roam these mountains and in the spring the capercaillie, king of the forest, screams his mating call. |
Of course the capercaillie must be saved, but what about other indigenous Scottish species facing extinction? |
