The Scottish Wildcat is a small, elusive feline native to the Scottish Highlands. It resembles a domestic cat but has a bushy tail, distinctive stripes, and a more robust build. This wildcat primarily hunts small mammals and birds, preferring dense forests and remote areas for its habitat. Due to habitat loss and hybridization with domestic cats, the Scottish Wildcat is critically endangered. Conservation efforts are underway to protect this unique species and its natural environment. Understanding its behavior and ecology is essential for ensuring its survival in the wild.
