@emilyinscotland: ‼️🏴Mistakes to avoid in Scotland🏴‼️ People do all of these things, not knowing they are doing more harm than good. 1. Rubbing Greyfriars Bobby’s nose is thought to be good luck but actually it is just causing exptensive damage to the statue 😢 2. Coins in tree stumps was said to be leaving a wish, but it is actually destorying habitats for lots of wee beasties and can even poison them🕷️🦟🐛 3. You may see people online feeding the animals but it can affect their health and their behaviour negatively. 🦌 #Scotland #mistakestoavoid #scottishhighlands #tourism #responsibletourism #deer #wildlife #greyfriarsbobby #scottishtiktok

when I saw Bobby last November I rested my hand on his foot just like I did with my rescue pup before she crossed the Rainbow Bridge. I feel bad now incase I caused any problems with Bobby

Why would anyone stick coins in tree stumps 😭😭 and follow up question: why hasn't anyone just pulled them out? like Ik some may be more stuck than others but still

Thank you. The thing with Bobby has been an issue of recent years… it wasn’t when I first went to Edinburgh in 2012.

I was in Edinburgh in 2022 and our guides and just local bars around encouraged rubbing Bobby’s nose. (Not that my 4’11 self could even reach it)
