Leopard Magazine, which covers all topics of interest local to north-east Scotland have published an article which I wrote on the various survival techniques employed by animals and plants on the mountain tops. The topic was inspired by the recent snowy winter in the north-east and I describe how adaptations in form and behaviour enable species to not only survive in such conditions, but thrive.
An abbreviated version of the article is available online at the link below - the text is complete, only most of the photographs are omitted. I also supplied the photographs.
