Oidhirpean èiginneach cait-fhiadhaich na h-Alba a shàbhaladh tro obair-ghlèidhteachais dàna. Following the efforts to save Scotland’s wildcats from extinction.

Tha am prògram aithriseach Wildcats: Cait ann an Cunnart a’ leantainn an sgioba aig Pàirc Fiadh-bheatha na Gàidhealtachd ’s iad ag obair a dh’ionnsaigh aon de na beathaichean as motha a th’ ann an cunnart san Rìoghachd Aonaichte a shàbhaladh, an cat-fiadhaich Albannach. Aig aon àm na ìomhaigh air bòidhchead fiadhaich na h-Alba, tha nas lugha na 100 cat-fiadhaich air fhàgail ri linn measgachadh gnè agus atharrachadh àrainneachd.

Tha am prògram seo a’ sealltainn nan oidhirpean iongantach aig luchd-glèidhteachais, luchd-saidheans agus daoine a tha ag obair gu saor-thoileach gus na cait-fhiadhaich a thoirt air ais gu Pàirce Nàiseanta a' Mhonaidh Ruaidh. Tha seo na sgeulachd làn dòchais agus a’ toirt sealladh dlùth air an fheadhainn a tha a’ sabaid gus dèanamh cinnteach nach tèid na cait shònraichte seo à bith.

Documentary that follows the Saving Wildcats team at Highland Wildlife Park as they work to protect one of the UK’s most endangered animals, the Scottish wildcat. Once a symbol of Scotland’s wild beauty, fewer than 100 of the species remain in the wild due to habitat loss and hybridisation. This film highlights the ambitious efforts of conservationists, scientists and volunteers collaborating to reintroduce wildcats into the Cairngorms National Park, aiming to restore a thriving, sustainable population. It’s a story of hope, resilience, and the fight to save an iconic species from extinction.
