      Did you know, there used to be wild haggis in Australia, but they were all hunted to local extinction by the drop bears.

        That's why the last of them emigrated to Scotland, no Eucaliptus trees :phew:

          They have also become much faster since moving to Scotland, providing of course they are running in the right direction; best way to catch them is to try and block them off so they turn around quickly and then they just fall over.....

            Just sit and wait on a mountain side. They always walk round the mountain anti clockwise. Their leftlegs are shorter than their right, so if they try to go clockwise, they fall.
