A special programme focusing on Paul Lister's plans to bring wolves and lynx to the Alladale Estate in Sutherland.

A special programme focusing on Paul Lister's plans to bring wolves and lynx to the Alladale Estate in Sutherland. Euan McIlwraith asks whether ecological restoration should take priority over hard-won access rights to the Scottish countryside. Would the sacrifice be worth it if even just a small chunk of the landscape could be returned to a more natural state? Plus, can the Alladale project tell us anything about the state of land ownership in Scotland?

Followed by another chance to hear our programme exploring the life and work of the Victorian mountaineer, geographer and naturalist Caleb George Cash. Guided by Caleb's List author Kellan MacInnes, Mark Stephen traces Caleb's life from the grand buildings of The Edinburgh Academy, to the gentle shores of Loch an Eilein, to the summit of a wild and wintry Ben Lomond.
