Gasconnes in Ecosse
Gasconne cattle hail from the French Pyrenees but they can also be found happy at home on a farm near Elgin.
Sarah went to meet breeder Willie Hendry who thinks their mountains origins make GasconneΒ the perfect cattle for the Scottish climate.
Trapping Controversy
The law allows crows and magpies to be trapped in certain circumstances, for example to protect gamebirds, song birds or crops.
But the RSPB are concerned that crow traps are being misused to illegally trap birds of prey. An allegation denied by gamekeepers and estates owners.
Euan finds out how the traps work and hears the arguments.
