## Resource

Scotland’s favorite animal is officially the Highland cow, crowned in a viral 10-week social media poll that drew over 86,000 votes — beating out the red squirrel in the final. But this wasn’t just a fun contest; it’s part of the National Trust’s bold Plan for Nature, spotlighting key species and habitats from puffins to rare beetles. The cow, while not a top priority species, plays a crucial role in conservation grazing across iconic landscapes like Culloden and Glencoe. Its win is a win for awareness — proving that a little internet love can spark big conversations about protecting Scotland’s wild heart.
