Kisah dan tradisi
Wild haggis (dengan nama taksonomi jenaka Haggis scoticus) adalah makhluk rekaan cerita rakyat Skotlandia (Scottish folklore) yang konon asli Dataran Tinggi Skotlandia (Scottish Highlands). Secara bercanda ia diklaim sebagai sumber haggis, hidangan tradisional Skotlandia yang sebenarnya dibuat dari jeroan domba seperti jantung, paru-paru, dan hati. Menurut sebagian sumber, kaki kiri dan kanannya berbeda panjang, seperti sidehill gouger dan dahu, sehingga ia dapat berlari cepat mengelilingi gunung dan lereng terjal habitatnya, tetapi hanya ke satu arah. Konon ada dua varietas haggis, satu berkaki kiri lebih panjang dan satu berkaki kanan lebih panjang, yang berlari searah atau berlawanan arah jarum jam mengelilingi gunung. Keduanya hidup damai tetapi tak dapat kawin silang di alam liar, karena jantan harus berbalik menghadap arah yang sama dengan betina dan kehilangan keseimbangan. Menurut survei daring yang dipesan produsen haggis Hall's of Broxburn pada 2003, sepertiga pengunjung AS ke Skotlandia percaya wild haggis makhluk nyata. Menurut artikel de, ia digambarkan sebagai hewan kecil berbulu mirip persilangan kelinci dan tupai.
The wild haggis (jokingly classified as Haggis scoticus) is a made-up creature of Scottish folklore, supposedly native to the Scottish Highlands. It is claimed in jest to be where haggis comes from, though that traditional Scottish dish is really made from sheep's innards such as heart, lungs and liver. Some say its left and right legs differ in length, like those of the sidehill gouger and the dahu, so it can race round the steep mountains and slopes it lives on, but only one way. There are said to be two varieties, one with longer left legs and one with longer right legs, running clockwise or anticlockwise round a mountain. They live in peace but cannot interbreed in the wild, since a male would have to turn to face the female's way and lose his balance. In an online survey commissioned by haggis maker Hall's of Broxburn in 2003, a third of US visitors to Scotland believed the wild haggis was real. According to the de article it is pictured as a small furry animal like a cross between a rabbit and a squirrel.
