A stoat has managed to evade dogs, AI cameras, and targeted traps for more than five months on the Scottish island of Rousay.

The £150,000 operation was launched in April following sightings of the “stealthy, fast-moving animal” on the Orkney island, where stoats pose a serious threat to the native wildlife.
