KNOYDART CULL CALLED INTO QUESTION

The Scottish Gamekeepers Association is calling on the Scottish Government to investigate why a landowning conservation charity left dozens of stags ‘to rot’ on a Knoydart hillside. The deer-culling practice by the John Muir Trust on their land at Li and Coire Dhorcail left stags, some with haunches and heads removed, to decompose on the moor and online images of the carcasses, viewed by thousands, have elicited angry responses.
