It is about time I place a picture of a unicorn in my picture gallery, this is considered a desperate attempt to beg more hits from those viewers out there who are unflinching lover of this popular mythical creature. My unicorn is the more classical in that it bears resemblance to those unicorns that are described by Ctesias or Pliny the Elder. They described a incredibly swift creature that rival in strenght with that of an elephant, swift like an antelope and is fearless like the lion. Its most distinct feature is that slightly curve, spiralled horn in between its brows. The medieval unicorn looks more that a stag, it has cloven hooves and its tail is like that of a lion.
