  • Resumen

  • Mysterious, fierce, and teetering on the edge of extinction — the Scottish Wildcat is one of the UK’s rarest and most elusive mammals.

    Nicknamed the Highland Tiger, this striking predator once prowled across much of the UK. But today, it's hanging on by a thread.

    In this episode, we take a closer look at what makes this cat so special — from its huge personality and charismatic scowl to its deep roots in Scottish culture and folklore. We explore the threats it faces, uncover the reasons behind its decline, and shine a light on the passionate conservationists working to bring this iconic species back from the brink.
