The 'Enigmatic' Peat Bog Seeking Worldwide Recognition

  • A vast area of peat bog in Scotland's Flow Country could become one of UNICCO's newest World Heritage sites.
  • This land was prepared for large blocks of commercial forestry, which included the planting of millions of non-native trees.
  • Flow Country is home to a diverse range of wildlife including birds, mammals and plants.
  • Flow Country contains the most intact and extensive raised bog system in the world.
  • This expanse of moors, moors, pools, lochs, hills and mountains covers much of Caithness and Sutherland in the North Highlands.
  • It's about 50 miles wide – about the distance from Glasgow to Edinburgh – and covers almost a million acres of land.
  • The bogs, which have been growing for 10,000 years, are formed by layers of wet mosses and other plants as they die.
