The Sidehill Gouger

Hey, i found this thing on the internet and for shits and giggles i was telling some people at school and you'd be surprised how many people thought i was serious. I tried to keep a straight face telling them it was a research project i was doing, but couldn't help bust out laughing when they were like "wow, is this true? where is this? what do they look like?"

Anyway, here it is:

Have you heard of the Sidehill Gouger? These are animals with legs on one side that are shorter than the legs on the other side. They have gotten this way through centuries of genetic selection, because they live on steep mountainsides and always walk around them in the same direction while they graze, so the uphill legs have come to be shorter than the downhill legs. There are 2 subspecies; Lefthand Sidehill Gougers always walk in a counterclockwise direction, and Righthand Gougers always go clockwise. They don't usually breed together, because the results can be pretty awful and can't move about much at all, so predators usually get them quickly. They are very fast runners; but the only way you can catch a gouger is on a flat area, because they can't run on the flats at all.

You mean haggis? Some Scots tell a similar story to visitors about haggis
