‘Feral’ pigs ‘illegally’ let loose in the Cairngorms, park authority says “Feral” pigs have been illegally released in the Cairngorms, the park authority has said.

On Monday, the Cairngorms National Park Authority said the pigs were seen near the Uath Lochans area of the park, and staff attempted to capture the “relatively domesticated” animals.

A spokesman said on Facebook: “We are aware that feral pigs have been spotted in an area of the Cairngorms National Park near Uath Lochans.

“The park authority condemns any illegal release of animals in the strongest possible terms.”.

The authority said they appear to have been illegally abandoned in the park grounds.
