As per previous comment absolutely spot on. All those interviewed expressed very articulately the essence of all that’s associated with our moors….our grouse moors.

Such a fantastic film. More people need to watch these informative films to understand the necessity of these estates to provide for the local community. Unfortunately most people will just see shooting. ..

According to the RSPB there were 488 incidents of bird of prey persecution in Scotland from 2007 to 2022 concentrated around grouse moors in the Highlands and Southern Uplands. Conservation scientists and campaigners believe that birds such as golden eagles and hen harriers are being killed to prevent them from preying on red grouse, the main target species of the shooting industry. And whilst raptors are currently protected by laws such as the Wildlife and Countryside Act, RSPB Scotland says that since 1990 nearly 60 gamekeepers have been prosecuted for raptor persecution.
