Description
In 1995, the National Trust for Scotland acquired Mar Lodge Estate in the heart of the Cairngorms. After 25 years of extremely hard work, the pinewoods, bogs, moors and mountains are returning to their former glory. This is the story of that success, featuring not only the people who are protecting the land and quietly working to undo the wrongs of the past, but also the myriad creatures which inspire them to do so. It also tackles current controversies such as raptor persecution, deer management and rewilding and asks bigger questions about the nature of conservation itself: what do we see when we look at our wild places? What should we see?
