Real Unicorn Found - Roe Deer in Italy
One-Horned 'Unicorn' Deer Born in Italy
Quote:
|
The one-year-old Roe Deer -- nicknamed "Unicorn" -- was born in captivity in the research center's park in the Tuscan town of Prato, near Florence, Tozzi said.
|
Quote:
Single-horned deer are rare but not unheard of -- but even more unusual is the central positioning of the horn, experts said.
"Generally, the horn is on one side (of the head) rather than being at the center. This looks like a complex case," said Fulvio Fraticelli, scientific director of Rome's zoo. He said the position of the horn could also be the result of a trauma early in the animal's life.

Pretty darn cool. Real unicorn!

The unicorn was born in captivity today, even though God could not be reached for comment, his spokes person muttered "God hates freaks" then added, "I thought we got rid of those things when Moses pushed them off of the Ark."

I'm sure that thing was bred for its skills and magic powers, but it's still not as good as a liger.

What was Moses doing on the Ark... Banging Noah's wife? He was probably trying to sneak off the Ark when he accidentally bumped into the unicorn, sending it overboard.
Damn adulterers have cost the Twins their unicorn!

Nice catch, I was waiting for someone to hammer me on it, and nobody stepped up on one of the most epic biblical fails of all time.

Moses: I'm from the future. I came here in a time ark that you invented. I need your help to get back to the year 1000BC.
Noah: OK, future-boy, if you're from the future, tell me: who is Pharaoh of Egypt in the year 1000?
Moses: Ramses
Noah: RAMSES! I suppose Trojan is vice pharaoh. And Durex is secretary of state!
I'm sorry, future boy. I don't have time for this.
(ark door slams)
Moses:. (through door, in raft) I can prove it! That bump on your head! You told me the whole story... You were in the bathroom, hanging a sundial when a unicorn poked you in the ass and knocked you down, hitting your head on the sink. When you awoke, you had a vision. The Flux Catapult. Which... is... what... makes.... launching... unicorns into the sea.... possible.
