Red Squirrels

the brown hare isnt native either.

am i the only person who does this - if i accidentally run over a rabbit or a pheasant i think to myself 'its ok, its introduced' whereas i would probably cry if i squished a red squirrel - and indeed was very upset when i ran over a hedgehog (was on a bend at night and couldnt avoid) :(

It hopes to encourage them to return to its Kirkcudbright Training Centre - often used as a site for infantry training with live firing.

To be fair, it’s an area of 7.3 square miles, so there’s room for everyone to play.

To be fair, 7.3 square miles is not a very large area when you're talking about heavy ordnance...
They have provided a handy map for visitors with only one small part labelled as 'danger area', but I have a sneaking suspicion that it relates to the entire area bordered by the heavy red line. (Also a significant amount of the nearby sea area.)
