Wildlife, wildlife everywhere.
We have an abundance of it on Dartmoor: some rare and some as common as the day is wet but all cherished; Dartmoor ponies, cattle, butterflies, birds of prey, otter, grey squirrels and deer live amicably side by side. There are many stories of beasts and large wild cats roaming the moor, but you don't believe in stories, do you? Much as the Loch Ness Monster is to Scotland, these beasts are all part of the myths and legends of Dartmoor.
