That the Parliament notes the publication by Trees for Life of Caledonian Pinewoods, which, it understands, presents the results of a four-year study of the status and condition of the last remaining remnants of this habitat; understands that Caledonian pinewoods are unique to Scotland and are home to Scotland’s national tree, the Scots pine; acknowledges what it sees as the wealth of biodiversity that the pinewoods support, including rare and endangered species such as wild cat, capercaillie and twinflower; considers that pinewoods can make a contribution to mitigating the impacts of climate change; understands that Caledonian pinewoods would have once covered most of Scotland but are confined to just 84 remnants, covering less than 2% of their original area; believes that browsing by deer and the spread of invasive non-native species means that many pinewoods will not survive without urgent action; supports Trees for Life’s recommendations for landscape scale deer management, targeted grant funding to enable urgent remedial action, and considers that Forestry and Land Scotland takes a leadership role in pinewood restoration, especially in the removal of invasive non-native species, such as rhododendron.
