There are other references, but Psalms comes to mind.
Psalms 22:21 Save me from the lion's mouth: for thou hast heard me from the horns of the unicorns.

The Invisible Pink Unicorn (may her hooves never be shod) is an example created to demonstrate to theists why they have the burden of proof when they talk about an inherently contradictory notion that does not jibe with observed reality. Theists have never been able to demonstrate that their god is more believable than the IPU.
The Bible *does* mention some pretty weird beings, including the lilith demon, which was a succubus (i.e. a demon that would enter people's homes at night and have sex with men while they slept).

"i don't see the word unicorns in the bible?"
They might not exist then if the bible doesn't mention them. In fact I don't even know what I'm writing this message on..

The point is that there is no more or less evidence for the existence of unicorns than there is for the existence of your god. Just because the idea of a god is more popular, does not actually lend it any more credibility or probability.

There is just as much proof a unicorn existed as there is that God exists. It is all based on faith.

Because they feel that our belief in God (or gods, a goddess, or any other deity) is no more rational than a belief in a mythological creature, such as a unicorn. Especially an invisible pink unicorn.

Because unicorns are just as believable as god and have a lot more books written about them.
All hail the great pink unicorn!
