Wildcat Priority Areas

Boundaries of areas to be targeted for wildcat conservation. Areas selected based on results of wildcat camera trapping surveys performed by WildCru, over the winter of 2013 - 2014. Boundaries of proposed areas were created by Nick Littlewood, at James Hutton Institute, using natural watersheds and water features as geographic limits.

See Commissioned Report 768 for how the areas were derived https://www.nature.scot/doc/naturescot-commissioned-report-768-survey-and-scoping-wildcat-priority-areas.
