Story
The Scottish Wildcat, aka the Highland Tiger, is on the brink of extinction. With key threats such as hybridisation, disease and accidental persecution, it is estimated that we only have five years to stop them from disappearing from our highland landscape forever. But with ground-breaking conservation programmes involving captive breeding, molecular ecological research and monitoring, such as Wildcat Haven and Scottish Wildcat Conservation Action Plan, we stand a chance of saving them.

9 years agoCan't believe we did it! With your generous support and so many people willing me on, together, we've raised £215 in online pledges and £30 in cash, which I will gladly round up to £250! I have decided to donate the full amount to the Wildcat Haven project as they us the humane method of Capture, Neuter, Release to control the feral population and prevent hybridisation. So, they can choose a new location to place a shiny new camera trap, thanks to you. (I will make small, personal donations to the wildcats at Kingussie Highland Wildlife Park and the SWA). Proud as punch of what we've achieved and am massively grateful to you all for making a dream come true and allowing me to give these cats a significant gift from me on my 40th birthday. With all my heart, THANK YOU!!! :0) x

To raise funds, I, Verti-Mo Dickson, and patience-of-a-saint fiance, Richard Newman, will be climbing Ben Nevis via the infamous Carn Mor Dearg (CMD) arête - one of Britain's classic ridge routes taking in two Munros over 11.6 miles with 1,935m of ascent and a grade 1 scramble.
