A nature reserve in Italy has officially claimed the world's first living unicorn.

Okay, actually it's a deer with some sort of genetic mutation. But the deer is healthy in all other ways, and also has a twin with two normal horns. Gilberto Tozzi, the director of the Centre of Natural Sciences in Prato, Italty, believes that animals with similar mutations must have inspired the myth of the unicorn, which would explain why it has appeared in so many different cultures across history.
