Unique enrichment for snow leopards at RZSS Highland Wildlife Park
Keepers at RZSS Highland Wildlife Park have provided snow leopards, Chan and Animesh, with some special enrichment.
Around once a month the pair of snow leopards are temporarily placed in their upper holding pens and the Turkmenian markhors are moved into the enclosure to graze. As the markhor move around and explore, they naturally leave scent trails which provides the snow leopards with lots of enrichment and scents to follow once the markhor are safely returned to their regular enclosure.
Appropriate enrichment stimulates natural behaviours such as foraging and scent marking which are good for the animals physical and mental well-being. RZSS Highland Wildlife Park is one of a very few zoological facilities, that temporarily swaps animals into other enclosures, exposing them to new sites and smells.

Eurasian beaver (Castor fiber) at the Highland Wildlife Park at Kincraig near Kingussie Scotland
The European beaver was once widespread across much of Britain and Europe, but was hunted to virtual extinction for its fur and for the chemicals from its scent glands. This wonderful animal became totally extinct across the whole of the UK as long ago as the 16th century, but populations now exist in certain wildlife parks and a very few remote places in the wild. Beavers have now been reintroduced into more than 13 other European countries and the world hasn't stopped spinning; so seeing more and more of them in Scotland will happen eventually. Eventually is the key, because gamekeepers and shooters don't like things they can't kill and there is a reluctance to upset them for some reason. Also beavers tend to raise their young relatively slowly; so they don't expand their numbers very quickly.
Many people remain ignorant about the beaver - believing they eat fish (which they don't) and that they flood rivers (which they don't do either). In fact, the dams they build tend to prevent flooding (as the dams slow down the water rushing down the hillsides) and the pools of water they create are good for the fish (especially trout and salmon), which they genuinely don't eat. The pools of water almost certainly benefit fish stocks and improve things for many other wildlife species too. The sooner every major river has beavers back on them the better. They are delightful animals, whose shy nature is a delight to watch if you have the patience.
This is a short video clip of a beaver emerging from its dwelling on a small lake at the Highland Wildlife Park at Kincraig near Kingussie in Scotland. A very cautious individual, we had a 30 minute wait before the beaver ventured out. We loved it - well worth the wait. For more info re: beavers in Scotland, please checkout
Just to give a sense of size and scale, an adult beaver weighs in at roughly 18 kg (40 lb) and is roughly 700-1000mm long, with a 300-400mm tail. They live for 7 to 8 years, although can live up to 25 in extreme cases. They generally live in small groups of 3 to 5; and occupy a range of roughly 3-4 sq km.
We highly recommend the Highland Wildlife Park - there are lots of animals to see; and they let you see and get close to animals you'd find it difficult to spot in the wild.
Many thanks for watching.

Red Deer Stag 'Rut' at the Highland Wildlife Park
Tension and testosterone levels are rising amongst the red deer stags in the Highlands, as the annual rut gets well underway at the Highland Wildlife Park. The rut is an annual occurrence for red deer, meaning that the breeding season has kicked off. Rutting sees top stags competing for dominance and control of the hinds. As the weather grows colder the rut will grow more intense.

Breaking News | Highland Wildlife Park reveal name of new polar bear cub
The Royal Zoological Society of Scotland (RZSS) drew up a shortlist of four names for the four-month-old male cub and put them to a public vote. Hamish received around 21,000 of the 33,000 votes cast, beating Artor, MacKinnon and Poulsen. The youngster was born in a special enclosure at the Highland Wildlife Park near Kingussie in December. In the poll RZSS described Hamish as a name “ideal for a polar bear born in the Highlands”.READ MORE: In pictures: Polar bear cub born in Highlands makes fir...
