      Because it says high speed underwater unicorn… narwhals top at 4kph, swordfish top at 64kph.

        I’ll take a slow actual water unicorn over some billed fish anyway, regardless of speed.

            Narwhals have a single horn sticking out of their face from between their eyes. A Warthog has two tusks sticking out from either side of their mouth. At least their both mammals.

              The narwhal “horn” is actually a tusk, and rarely they can have two.

                Fair point. Still more of a horn than a fish bill.

                Can you explain why every unicorn horn I’ve ever seen much more closely resembles a narwhal tusk than a rhino’s horn? Are unicorn horns even horns?!

        If you enjoyed it, it wasn’t a waste.

        However I’ve 100%'d Yoshi’s Island… twice. Three times if you count Yoshi’s Island DS. And now I make romhacks of Yoshi’s Island and Super Mario World today. I might have a problem!

      It was just medieval descriptions of a rhino because how else do you explain it to people in Europe

        Wow! Look at that massive beast with one Horn! I bet it weighs as much as a house, How would you even describe that thing?

        Hmmm, it’s a gay horse.

      I think they are trying to keep this based a bit more in reality and not bring in other fantasy creatures.

    The person who made this image, and OP are dumb as fuck. Narwhals are the unicorns of the sea, not fucking swordfish. A unicorns horn is not the same as just a pointy thing.

      Unicorns by definition have one horn, while rhinoceroses have two. So clearly there’s something else wrong there.

    Aerial unicorn… The 359 Fighter Group is a 1940’s US Air Force unit that flew several operations in WWII in P-51 Mustang aircraft. “The Unicorns” were their conical name and had insignia patches to match!
