Wildlife cameras from the Highlands have captured rare new footage of the annual Haggis Migration as the first snow and freezing temperatures send thousands of the wee furry beasts rolling out of the hills in search of warmth (and pies).

Early reports include:

• small groups seen crossing the A9 in single file
• one haggis attempting to enter a Tesco Express
• bins mysteriously overturned in Inverness
• a haggis spotted sitting on a radiator inside a community centre

Scientists warn the migration could last several days. Locals are advised to remain calm and under no circumstances offer them a Scotch pie as they don’t leave once fed.
