Red squirrels number on the rise in Scotland, survey finds.
A survey of red squirrels in Scotland suggests that efforts to increase their numbers have been successful.
Over many years, the reds retreated further northwards and concerns grew that they could be wiped out. The survey confirmed the only red squirrel population in the Highlands is safe and free of greys due to the efforts of staff protecting the Highland Boundary Fault Line, a geological feature stretching from Argyll to Aberdeenshire.During the fourth annual survey week in October, 659 participants reported 255 grey squirrel and 510 red squirrel sightings - more than triple the number reported in a typical week.
Vanessa Fawcett from the Red Squirrel Survival Trust told BBC Scotland that gardeners can help with the conservation efforts.
