Cramming a Purple-Headed Womb Ferret Into the Box - In the highlands of Scotland, where the purple-headed womb ferret (so-called because of it's highly prized pelt and unusual burrowing behavior) is considered a delicacy, many are raised in a movement restricting box from the time that they're weanlings - in the same fashion as calfs are bound to produce veal. This technique produces a succulent meat but is abhorred by many animal rights groups as barbaric. Typically done once a year on "Box Cramming Day" it is a celebration replete with bagpipes and lots of malty scots whiskey.
