WHAT DID THEY DO TO OUR CHILDREN????!!?!?

What if grapeleaf skeletonizer moth…but she’s a 1920s Parisian femme fatale! Inspired by the uncredited postcard art of butterfly fairy flappers produced in 1928, as well as Louis Hingre’s butterfly girls.

And, the actual moth for reference:

Red Squirrel's range in the Scottish Highlands has increased by more than 25% following a decade of reintroductions led by charity Trees for Life. 

Surveys co-ordinated by the charity show that a dozen new populations are now established, with many showing evidence of breeding and natural expansion.

Since the project began in 2015, some 259 squirrels have been relocated from healthy donor sites in Inverness-shire, Moray and Strathspey to 13 suitable woodlands across the north and north-west Highlands.

Red Squirrel returns

The species has now returned to areas from which it had been absent since the 1970s, including sites near Ullapool, Brora, Morvern and across much of the central Highlands as far north as Lairg.

The most recent releases saw 12 squirrels introduced to coastal woodlands between Letterfearn and Ratagan on the Glenelg peninsula, supplementing a small population established last autumn. All translocations are licensed by NatureScot and follow strict welfare protocols, with small numbers taken from each donor population and only healthy individuals moved.

unauthorized fucking thing!!!!!!
