About this Event

Clinging by a Claw, created by Saving Wildcats and produced by SCOTLAND: The Big Picture, offers an extraordinary insight into the journey of Scotland's wildcats from the brink of extinction to their return to the wilds of the Cairngorms National Park.

Narrated by Outlander star Sam Heughan, this film captures the breathtakingly beautiful landscapes of the Scottish Highlands where wildcats could have a future if they continue to receive the vital support they need.

This heart-warming story takes you into the lives of these rare and elusive animals, revealing hidden moments never seen before.

The screening is taking place at Edinburgh Zoo in the Budongo Lecture Theatre.

Saving Wildcats is led by the Royal Zoological Society of Scotland in collaboration with NatureScot, Forestry and Land Scotland (FLS), The Cairngorms National Park Authority, Norden’s Ark, Consejería de Sostenibilidad, Medio Ambiente y Economía Azul de la Junta de Andalucía, Cats Protection and with releases being conducted with the support of Cairngorms Connect. Saving Wildcats is supported by the LIFE programme of the European Union.

Please note this event takes place at 6pm after the zoo closes. Tickets are for the film screening only and not for day entry into Edinburgh Zoo.
