holy shit! 'UNICORN' deer is found in Italian preserve

ROME - A deer with a single horn in the center of its head — much like the fabled, mythical unicorn — has been spotted in a nature preserve in Italy, park officials said Wednesday.

"This is fantasy becoming reality," Gilberto Tozzi, director of the Center of Natural Sciences in Prato, told The Associated Press. "The unicorn has always been a mythological animal."

The 1-year-old Roe Deer — nicknamed "Unicorn" — was born in captivity in the research center's park in the Tuscan town of Prato, near Florence, Tozzi said.

3. Doesn't count. It has to be a horse with one horn.
This is just an effed-up deer.

8. Neat.
Not quite a unicorn though... and frankly, I'd rather someone find dragons.
