Red squirrels have been introduced at Castle Ward in a bid to establish a new population in the grounds of the Co Down property.The first four have been released at the estate with more to follow.The quartet were carefully transported by Belfast Zoo and Ulster Wildlife in hay-lined nest boxes to a soft-release pen in the estate to allow them to get used to their new surroundings, before taking their first leap into the wild.
