Scotland's national animal is a unicorn!
Yes, that's right. If you're still not aware of that and haven't heard about it, let me share this information with you.
Scotland chose the unicorn as their national animal because it symbolizes purity, innocence, masculinity and power. It has tales of dominance and chivalry associated with the unicorn, which is why the unicorn was chosen as Scotland’s national animal.
The Unicorn is a mythological animal. The ideals it represents are said to be a perfect fit for Scotland, because, like this honored beast, Scots would fight to remain unconquered.
Why is the unicorn chained to the Scottish coat of arms?
The unicorn was believed to be the most powerful among the animals– wild and untamed. It is said to be possible that the chains symbolize the power of the Scottish kings.
