maybe those ancients weren't so dumb and overimaginative after all? this vid from 2006 shows at least one explanation for the legend of the unicorn...

The vid wouldn't play for me....

I found this one on Animal planet tho-

It is very plausible to me.

sorry bout that...it took a long time to load for me but eventually came thru. it looks like yours is the same clip! basically showing a deer with a horn growing in the center of his forehead. seemed genuine and makes me think if there is one there have probably been others...and maybe even horse versions..

d'you really think animal planet would go to those lengths to make a story? or the "scientists" who supposedly found it? it's possible to be too cynical IMO...though i guess a hoax is possible too.

mutant, possibly. i was interested in the possibility that those "myths" about unicorns were based in fact and actually even if this is a fake it makes that possibility seem pretty real..

I don't think I'm too cynical.

And yes, I'd believe any corporate machine that generates revenues from high viewership would go that far. People are ruled by the almighty dollar.

But it's most likely a mutant.

What? Why did you delete? We can't all believe in unicorns, sorry. And I am entitled to my opinion -- just like you believe it, I don't. Why can't people have different opinions and say so, without having be made to feel like a total *hit? It isn't like I put anyone down for feeling different than I do.

It's reasons such as this that there are wars, bigotry, and every other evil. God forbid people not believe in your belief. This stupid simple silly thread about a possible unicorn just became a metaphor for all the evils and intolerance inherent in the world. Think about it.

@diana i deleted because i didn't want to get into an argument over your opinion. if you want to start a war over it you are on your own...it was just an interesting little story as far as i'm concerned.

No, I don't want to get into a "war" over it. I only expressed my opinion. I think I did it in a respectful way. You are the one getting rude about it.

I had no idea unicorns were such a touchy subject, like religion, I suppose I'll steer clear of any conversations having to do with them in the future.
