'Priceless' trees stolen from Kinnoull Woodland Park
Thieves have stolen five "extremely rare" Serbian trees from woodland near Perth.
Forest Enterprise Scotland (FES) said the picea omorika trees had no commercial value, but were a "priceless component" of a conservation project.
Genetic material from the trees was being used in an international programme to conserve conifers.
The thieves took the trees from Kinnoull Woodland Park last week. Police Scotland are investigating.
