And the Scottish Wild Cats,the were absolutely stunning,they were really active so some of these pics are not very good,they wouldnt stay still long enough to get a decent pic -

Great pictures Erin, looks a lovely place :D

[Elaine]

Those pictures came out really well:D Good to see them all again xxx

[babycakes]

Great pics especially of the wild cats. How fab to have been there at feeding time too

[Carole]

Great pics :) Its been years since I have been there. Might need to visit next time I am up that way.

[Tink]

how gorgeous..i'm officially jealous!! :-)

Great pictures Erin - those wildcats though - they should be free!!! I know these wildlife parks do good work with saving species, but to see those dignified creatures behind fences sort of chokes me.

And what is the animal in the 2 photos just above the otter?

[Elaine]

They are arctic foxes Angie.
I think Kincraig does a fantastic job with its breeding programes etc, the biggest threat to the wild cat is the domestic cat and sadly, these things are needed if we want to see wild cats in the wild in the future.
But i know what you mean, it chokes me too.

Dont envy me, just come up and visit:D Scotland can be a very dark, wet and miserable place but when the sun shines, its simply gorgeous. A very under rated wee country is oor Scotland.
