Scottish National Animal is a Unicorn

[RSF]

The problem I feel that has been missed for years is that the beast actually lives on Land.

While the Loch ness monster is certainly not real, I think it'd be a cool national animal. They've already got a unicorn, so why not? At least the Loch Ness critter is more iconic.

Yes, it lives on land, and it farts rainbows and grants wishes for good little children.

Can't help but think that while Nessie is inextricably linked with Scotland, it mostly represents a tourist attraction at this point. Then again, since I'm not Scottish, it's probably a deeper connection than I understand.

Why not? we already have animals as national symbols.
