| The saving of the capercaillie, which Peter calls the icon of the Scottish pine woods, is high on their list of priorities. |
| The well-supported plan to save the capercaillie has this predator control as a central tenet. |
| Wolf, roe deer and wild boar roam these mountains and in the spring the capercaillie, king of the forest, screams his mating call. |
| I am pleased that at long last the Executive seems to recognise that it is a very effective predator of the capercaillie. |
| They also support a number of threatened and endangered bird species like the capercaillie, the osprey, and the ptarmigan. |
| Birdwatchers come to Scotland to spot golden and sea eagles, the rare and large-billed Scottish crossbill, and the rare capercaillie. |
