As part of the Year of Natural Scotland 2013, Visit Scotland and Scottish Natural Heritage have joined forces to showcase some of Scotland’s best loved wildlife.

'Scotland's Big 5' celebrates the fascinating red squirrel, red deer, golden eagle, otter and harbour seal, and is aimed at encouraging people across Scotland to enjoy these wonderful animals in their natural habitat. 

Come and admire Scotland’s natural beauty, stunning landscapes, intriguing heritage and wonderful wildlife at one of the Trust's 120 wildlife reserves and see how many of the 'Big 5' you can spot.

You can also vote for your favourite species from the 'Big 5', or download the unique 'Scotland's Big 5' mobile app, full of key facts and figures about each species, identification tips and a guide to some of the best places to spot them. Regular updates on the 'Scotland's Big 5' campaign are available through the dedicated Facebook page, Twitter feed and YouTube channel.
