Unicorn racing

Unicorn racing is an illegal betting sport in the Auld Countries and Merritt, involving track racing of unicorns. Aside from the species being endangered and illegal to keep in captivity, animal rights groups (and the general public) are concerned about the treatment of the unicorns.

More than a few politicians have been linked to or convicted of unicorn racing, and it is one of the few crimes that carries the death penalty in Merritt.
