Cairngorm Connect Success at Nature of Scotland Awards
Wildland’s 200 year vision of landscape-scale conservation in the Scottish Highlands is, after more than a decade of concerted efforts, seeing real and remarkable results. We’re proud of that but we know that our investment in Scotland’s wild land won’t just help nature heal itself – sustainable and thriving local communities lie at the heart of our vision.
Yet we know that Covid-19 has taken a severe toll in our communities, particularly among young people whose educations have been disrupted and who have faced – and are still facing – very significant barriers to finding employment. Even as we look forward to reopening businesses and coming together again following lockdown we must not forget that many young people will need extra help if they are to feel part of Scotland’s recovery.

What do golden eagles eat and why is this important to landscape scale restoration?
Here at WildLand, we believe in answering such questions to provide robust baseline data to inform us about our cherished wildlife and future land management decisions. Where landscape scale restoration is taking place, like that at WildLand Cairngorms, we wish to understand how the diet of our golden eagles may change as habitat improvements move towards their full ecological potential. Undertaking informative studies like this will allow us to understand how predators and their prey interact as the landscape changes. This work will also contribute to the wider Cairngorms Connect Predator Prey study.
