A haggis is a small
animal native to Scotland. Well when I say animal, actually it's a
bird with vestigial wings - like the ostrich. Because the habitat
of the haggis in exclusively mountainous, and because it is always
found on the sides of Scottish mountains, it has evolved a rather
strange gait. The poor thing has only three legs, and each leg is
a different length - the result of this is that when hunting haggis,
you must get them on to a flat plain - then they are very easy to
catch - they can only
run round in circles.
After catching your haggis, and dispatching it in time honoured fashion,
it is cooked in boiling water, then served with tatties and neeps
(and before you ask, that's potatoes and turnips).
Many other countries have tried to establish breeding colonies of
haggis, but to no avail - it's something about the air and water in
Scotland, which once the haggis is removed from that environment,
they just pine away. The largest known recorded wild haggis (caught
in 1893 by a crofter at the base of Ben Lomond), weighed 25 tons.
The three legs are a product of evolution, and this explains the logistic
problems of bringing two haggis together - after all, sure footed
though the beast is, if two were to mate on a Scottish hillside, it
is a long fall down, and a slip at the wrong time may very well result
in a reduction by two of the total haggis population.
What is known about Haggis breeding is that, several days prior to
giving birth, the Haggis make a droning sound - very much like a beginner
playing the bagpipes for the first time - giving rise to the speculation
that the bagpipes were indeed invented in Scotland, simply to lure
unsuspecting haggis into a trap. At the onset of this noise, all other
wildlife for a five mile radius can be seen exiting the area at an
extremely high rate of knots (wouldn't you if your neighbour had just
started to play the bagpipes?).
This tale is the complete and honest Gods truth, or as a (in)famous
woman
prime-minister of the UK once said:
'I never lie, I am only sometimes
economic with the truth!'
