The official animal of Scotland is the Unicorn

That must be why I have never seen a unicorn - they are all in Scotland - with the redheads...

"Fascinating" was a bit of a stretch...

But yes, the unicorn is the animal. That's why on the Royal Coat of Arms there is a lion (for England) and a unicorn.

Oh wow!



It doesn't matter where you come from; it matters where you go.
No-one gets remembered for the things they didn't do.
We won't all be here this time next year,
so while you can take a picture of us.
We're definitely going to hell,
but we'll have all the best stories to tell.

That is strange to have a mythical creature. Cute though. They should mention it more often. Welsh Dragon, English Lion & Scottish Unicorn ... & Irish .. leprechaun? :-/

Northern Ireland doesn't have a national animal. Although Wales has the dragon, Wales isn't really represented on any national symbol of the United Kingdom (flag, coats of arms or standards) at all, because it was considered as an official part of the Kingdom of England.

The official religion of Scotland is whisky actually ;) and yes, we have all the unicorns. I rode one to school. You can't have any.



Ask me mistakes I have made
Ask me whether what I have done is my life

Others have come, in their slow way -
And some have come to help, or to hurt -

Ask me what difference
Their strongest love or hate has made.

If you think Salmond is any better then you are very much mistaken.

Haggis is awesome, really nice. A very winter-y food.

I don't think Nessie would mind, considering she sells tons of tat merchandise each year.
