Here you’ll find an information board with well-presented information on Alladale.
Alladale Wilderness Reserve, spanning 23,000 acres in the Scottish Highlands, was acquired in 2003 by conservationist Paul Lister. His vision is to restore a wooded landscape and reintroduce native animals, including predators like the Scottish wildcat and wolf.
The reserve, managed as a private nature reserve, prioritizes biodiversity and aims to boost tourism. Inspired by South Africa's successful game reserves, Lister envisions creating a picturesque area where European wolves can be released into a controlled environment, similar to successful land restoration efforts in South Africa.
