The Saving Wildcats project has recently reached the milestone of releasing 50 Scottish wildcats into the wild! This is a promising step towards their goal of restoring the population to sustainable levels by 2045, helping to save the species from exinction. Restoring the Scottish wildcat population is so important, not only because wildcats are a beloved symbol of Scottish culture, but also because biodiversity is a pivotal part of a healthy ecosystem. The revenue generated at the Edinburgh Zoo goes toward conservation projects like this.
