    You don’t have to go very far these days to see a Highland cow. In fact, you don’t even need to leave your armchair. Pick up your phone and have a quick scroll on social media. You’ll discover boundless videos across Facebook, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube which star the Irn Bru-hued cattle, variously described as “cute” and “floofy” by adoring fans. Then there are the shop aisles crammed full of everything from Highland cow-adorned pyjamas and fleeces to homewares such as biscuit tins, hand tow
