The National Trust is searching for a mysterious animal that is preying on an island’s seabird population.
It comes after the discovery of “unusual signs” of predation by a mammal on Canna, to the south of Skye.
A number of seabirds have been eaten on the tiny Scottish island, which provides a habitat to thousands of birds.
The unusual bit is that there’s an external predator, possibly a mink, that is predating on the colony. That’s it. Just scientists being scientists, but I hate that it makes for good clickbait haha
