- throwway120385 3y agoThe haggis requires very specific ecological conditions for its eggs to mature.
- jjgreen 3y agoSo adorable when they hatch ...
- wizzwizz4 3y agoI thought haggis were mammals. Don't they give birth to live young?
- fransje26 3y agoI read that if you harvest the eggs at just the right time, they contain the purest, smoothest, cask-strength, single-malt you can imagine. The peatiness varies according to the region of harvest.

- pjc50 3y agoSomewhat disputed as to whether this is a good idea, but there's definitely plans to expand non-plantation "natural" forest for the ecosystem benefits. Main problem is the deer.

- smcl 3y agoThis is something that's a slow and steady ongoing process - increasing from 5% to 17% cover between the years ~1900-2000 with the aim being 21% coverage by 2032[0]. I don't know what is the "right" rate of afforestation is, whether it's going too slowly or whatever, but it's not something that's completely abandoned.
