FGS Species Conservation - Grey Squirrel Control
The aim of this FGS option is to support the targeted control of grey squirrels (Sciurus carolinensis) in areas where they are a threat to red squirrel (Sciurus vulgaris) populations.
This support is offered via the Forestry Grant Scheme (FGS) - Sustainable Management of Forests - Species Conservation - Grey Squirrel Control.
Please note that this dataset is primarily intended to support the FGS grant scheme. For a copy of the definitive PARC boundaries and indicative buffers, please contact the Scottish Wildlife Trust. Scottish Forestry would like to thank SWT for their approval to use this data.
