Unicorn born in Italy

This wonderful unicorn was born at the Center for Natural Sciences in Prato, Italy. Nicknamed "Unicorn," the magical unicorn is just a year old. His twin, a Roe Deer, has two horns.

  When he dies, can I have his horn for… medicinal… purposes?

• [Takuan]

  it’s not as good as human – horn, but OK

  I need a Goatse chaser..

  Deer like this born in the wild never, or rarely, get a mate. They cannot spar with their antlers, and on attempt, are lucky if they don’t lose an eye or aren’t seriously injured in the attempt.

  Now, quitting the daily dose of cynicism-

  AWWWWWWW HOW ADORABLE WITTLE WITTLE BUCK. Awww cute.

  I can’t believe that an actual-unicorn post only got 13 comments.. on BB!

  I mean, we’ve had multi-hundreds of comments (691 and counting) to a post about literally nothing.. and an RL UNICORN gets 13?

  Wonderful things..

• [holtt]

  I’d chase it.

  I thought unicorns were horses with a single horn, or is that an error resulting from seeing all those unicorn chaser pics on the ‘net?

• [Beanolini]

  #2, TRR: as #5, Gillagriene said, mediaeval unicorns traditionally had cloven hooves (unlike a horse), a beard like a goat, and a tail like a lion. Much less like a horse than the modern conception of a unicorn.

  Please breed.

  So, when do we get to see the rainbows and magic?

• [george57l]

  Wow! A dozen posts before some cynic said “Photoshop”.

• [Stefan Jones]

  Shouldn’t this have been posted after the horny cartoon character post?

• [Gillagriene]

  Depends on the source.

  “Medieval knowledge of the fabulous beast stemmed from biblical and ancient sources, and the creature was variously represented as a kind of wild ass, goat, or horse.” -Wikipedia
