Unicorns

Giramund via Compfight

Unicorns aren’t real although I really wish they were. Many years ago a Greek historian invented a legend  about a rainbow-horned creature. They are very majestic creatures that live in the forest by the waterfalls.

There once was a creature that the scientists called the giant unicorn. It doesn’t look as cool as the ones in fairy tales. Unicorn horns can bring dead things back to life and cure sicknesses. Ancient unicorn horns are actually narwhal teeth, northern traders were able to pass them down as unicorns and they were sold for large amounts of money.

Unicorns are the national animal of Scotland. There one was coin called the unicorn that was worth 18 shillings Scotts.

What’s your favourite  legendary or imaginary animal?

    Hey Morgan!
    Wow! This post had lots of information! How do you know all these facts? I think that’s really cool that unicorns are the national animal of Scotland. I think unicorns are so unique. You never know, they might exist! It kinda depends on what you believe in.
    My favourite legendary animals would probably be a unicorn, pegasus, dragons are pretty cool, and griffins or a hippogriff like Buckbeak from Harry Potter.
    Happy blogging!

    Hello Morgan.
    Your post on unicorns is very interesting. I was not aware of the ancient mythology surrounding them. Although I have never seen a unicorn, I have seen an arbarian oryx. These are creatures that look a little like deer, but have two large horns on their head. From the side, they look like unicorns, and are often credited with the creation of the unicorn legend. If you have a opportunity, I recommend you look for a local zoo or safari that has one of these beautiful creatures to go see. Thank you for sharing your post!
