"This is the first time we can say with certainty that European wildcats lived in prehistoric Ireland"
A stunning discovery and more evidence that there's a lot left to discover about Ireland's ecology!

Wildcat bones found in Co Clare dated to 5,500 years ago
The first directly dated wildcat bones found in Ireland have been identified, confirming that the species inhabited the island more than 5,500 years ago.
