Scottish wildcats (Felis silvestris grampia) have a wide, flat head, a bushy tail encircled with dark rings, and a distinctly striped coat which distinguish the true wildcat from feral cats. There are differences in their genetic make-up, blood type and skull features. Scottish wildcats are now one of Britain's rarest mammals and could be in serious danger of extinction.
