Besides the fact unicorns have seats on their heads, why else are they the best animal there is. Do you think they are real? I think they are. I saw one out in my backyard. He was eating some grass out there. Little did he know the grass was poisonous. You see I live in this small town and there is this farmer named Old Man Jenkins. He was using his crop duster to drop pesticides on his crops but he is old and forgot where his farm is and dropped pesticides all over my house and lawn. I'm afraid that the unicorn is going to die? What do you think? I think since unicorns are magical their colons must be magical and I think his magical colon will protect him.

LOL! I'll go ahead an answer this for the hilarity of it.
Only cloven-hoofed mammals, the Artiodactyls, have true horns, and they also have cloven skulls which could not support a singular horn in the center of the forehead without artificial mutilation of the horn bud, such as fusing the buds of a calf together.
Horses, of which unicorns are described as a relation of, are Perissodactyls, and do not have true horns. Other Perissodactyls are rhinoceroses, their horns are fused hair, and even on horses could not form the elaborate, straight-spiral shells that unicorns are described to have (although those horns bear an uncanny similarity to those of the oryx, the eland, the tusk of the narwhal and the fossil shells of belemnites and other extinct molluscs).
The only reliable descriptions of unicorns quite clearly describe various rhinoceros species, and in one case, what appears to be the extinct Elasmotherium, a European rhinoceros with a massive horn on its face and forehead.
Unicorns, the magical one-horned horse, cannot exist as popularly described due to these basic anatomical limitations.
Let the animal die, and allow the immaterial to become the immaterial.

Take a baby goat, excise its horn buds. Cleave each in half then implant paired opposite halves in the center of its head. There's your unicorn when it matures. Carnies build them all the time.
The opposite curvatures. left and right halves, cancel to a straight spiralled horn.

No, I do NOT think unicorns are real! Are you insane/crazy, or are you just lonely in your "little town"? I'm totally confused.

I think you've been eating too much of that grass yourself.
