Bull With Single Horn is Modern Unicorn [PIC]

i43.tinypic.com — "What might be called a modern unicorn has been produced by Dr. W. F. Dove, University of Maine biologist. From a day-old bull calf, Dr. Dove removed the two small knots of tissue which normally develop into horns. These horn buds he transplanted in the center of the bull’s forehead, thereby inducing the growth of a single massive horn."

  • jax0047, on 01/09/2009, -1/+25*****, only magical horns count. Plus it's a ***** cow, I bet it can't even fly or produce magical rainbows, two staples of the modern day unicorn, BURIED!

  • a117, on 01/09/2009, -0/+20I wonder if eating it would grant you immortality...
  • Rhendal, on 01/09/2009, -1/+19I don't care until they do that to a horse and then put Robocop on top of it.
  • SoCalDissident, on 01/09/2009, -2/+20That's what she said
  • metrognome, on 01/09/2009, -0/+17Martin: Why are you painting that horse?
    Prop Designer: Cows don't look like cows on film, so we use horses.
    Martin: What if you need a horse?
    Prop Designer: Then we just tape together a bunch of cats.

  • jba68, on 01/09/2009, -1/+11In India it would be magical. Think of the riots you could start if you killed it in public.


    /hilarity would ensue
  • lornefs, on 01/09/2009, -0/+9...nevermind the fact that unicorns are fictional creatures.
  • Peck3277, on 01/09/2009, -1/+9@Maurik: On tv horses don't look like cows. A bunch of cats stuck together looks like a cow
  • Manberries, on 01/09/2009, -0/+8grabbing the bull by the horn
  • netfool, on 01/09/2009, -0/+8Note that it says "modern". Back in the day unicorns used to be strong, powerful looking steeds that would run across mountaintops shooting rainbows everywhere. One day a bunch of them got drunk and banged a couple cows. After a few millenia you have what you see here. They just mosey around farms eating and farting all day.
  • siandt, on 01/09/2009, -1/+8No, that's Sparta.
  • FrederikNS, on 01/09/2009, -1/+8Easily! It's got a frickin' lazer beam attached to it head, for ***** sake!
  • inactive, on 01/08/2009, -9/+16fake!!!!!!
  • shutaro, on 01/09/2009, -1/+8What they need to do is splice the horse and Robocop together into some kind of robotic centaur.

  • sageerrant, on 01/09/2009, -1/+7That's madness!
  • britblogger, on 01/09/2009, -0/+6you're most certainly some kind of tard.
  • Fleagleman, on 01/09/2009, -1/+7....nevermind the fact that unicorns are in the horse family.
  • xsecretfiles, on 01/09/2009, -0/+5I would love to ride on that!
  • sprintmarathon, on 01/09/2009, -1/+6Is it a unicow or a cownicorn? http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=tSdjJjWOoVQ

  • danwallace, on 01/09/2009, -0/+4It also produces chocolate milk, craps out peppermint patties and eventually turns into some delicious steak... Wait... I meant MAGIC STEAK.
