This is a v welcome move by @ScotGamekeepers & @NatureScot: “The Central Belt Roe Deer Pilot Scheme – the first of its kind - will enhance public safety by reducing deer/vehicle collisions on motorway networks whilst improving the condition of amenity woodlands and green spaces.”

RHS Chelsea tonight BBC2, fascinating talk with gold medal winner Leon Kluge from South Africa. Where fire is recognised and embraced as fundamental to a healthy ecosystem. Media attention is apparently negative, but for plants and biodiversity, it is essential @ScotGamekeepers
