Scotland boasts a huge and diverse range of wildlife and this beautifully illustrated book celebrates it all. The various Scottish habitats are described-including mountain; bog and moor; woods; lochs and rivers; croft and farm; sea and seashore; and urban-as are their inhabitants. Featuring a wealth of information on hundreds of species, it offers fascinating insights into the role of animals in Scottish cultural life over a period of thousands of years with detail: historical; folkloric, which includes stories of mythical beasts; anecdotal; and even culinary. With descriptions of all the main Scottish conservation bodies and nature reserves, this volume also details the Wildlife and Countryside Act.
