Rejected petition For the Scottish Government to fund and legally protect Scottish wildcats.

The Government to increase funding for us to help the Scottish wildcat, and the many threats that it is under. By increasing funding we can help the many problems such as habitat loss, diseases, hybridisation and killing of them. There should be more severe punishment for killing of this animal

More details

I am currently studying the Scottish wildcats and am amazed by the beauty of this amazing animal. I just want to help prevent the awful decline of this animal, with your help too.
