Still Waters Posted April 25, 2017 #1 Share Posted April 25, 2017 A craze for all things unicorn has swept through popular culture of late, whether it's multi-coloured novelty drinks or technology investors looking for the next big thing. But a farming family in Iceland reckon they've found the real thing - of sorts - among their own flock of sheep. Erla Porey Olafsdottir's sheep normally have two horns. On one ram, however, these appear to have fused into one, forking only a little at the end, thus matching the Latin origins of the word - uni and cornu - "single horn". To be doubly sure though, Erla's family have also named him Einhyrningur, "unicorn" in Icelandic. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/blogs-news-from-elsewhere-39704683 http://www.icenews.is/2017/04/23/unicorn-in-a-flock-of-sheep/#axzz4fFYVrDJR 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
