Forestry and Land Scotland (FLS) has confirmed that feral pigs spotted roaming freely in the Cairngorms National Park have been captured and humanely culled.
The animals were sighted on Monday near Uath Lochans, a woodland area with small lochs close to Kingussie, south of Aviemore.
Earlier this week, the Cairngorms National Park Authority (CNPA) stated that the pigs were “relatively domesticated” and appeared to have been illegally abandoned.
