A REAL Unicorn!

Perhaps the origin of the mythical Unicorn has been demonstrated. A Roe deer in a nature park in Italy was born with a genetic defect in which only one horn grew from the middle of his head.

Take just such an anomaly, show it to a pre-civilized group of hunter-gatherers, and think….what would they have thought? Ahhh...Magick!

I can still hear the refrain of Herman's Hermits: "...sure as your born..don't you forget my unicorn."
