This area is the last stronghold for the Capercaillie, Scotland's largest game bird and the pine martin, red squirrel and of course, wild cat. Some say they have seen a larger feline animal in the area that cleverly remains elusive to most, that is if you don't count sheep which seem to be a delicacy for them!
