Description The extremely elusive Dwarf Unicorn can be found in the brushlands of South Africa, and especially been sighted in Swaziland.
This creature hides and secludes itself from the known world. Many safari enthusiasts have tried to catch this little wonder, but the fact that the Unicorn is a dull grey-ish red, it blends in nicely with the background and another fellow creature, the Common Duiker.
It's deception is the greatest camouflage from the eyes of unwanted visitors, keeping it's existence a secret.
Sightings are very rare, keeping us wondering if there's any breeding pairs left in the world.

Enjoy!

Zhon In reply to meow-woof [2008-04-26 19:19:46 +0000 UTC]

That'd be from a duiker (little african antelope)

You should look for a Griffon next - that'd be neat to see, since you keep finding so many rare specimens!

Woah, no way! That'd be awesome! Best of luck finding this mythical beastie. Watch out for Nessie!

If the Scots have caught Nessie I'll ask them if I can get her skull if and when she dies in captivity.... I feel so heartless... but I MUST have her skull!!!!

ravenclawxwhitewolf In reply to Zhon [2008-04-28 01:03:11 +0000 UTC]

Say it isn't so! Nessie must be freeeee! Perhaps you'll find her skull one day, washed up on the shore of the loch during a foggy day. *sigh* Lovely.

Zhon In reply to ravenclawxwhitewolf [2008-04-28 03:01:27 +0000 UTC]

LOL!
And who's to say she doesn't have little baybeees roaming around?

I got the gryphon! Found it by accident... or actually... it found me. I tripped in a ravine and landed in a nest. Momma wasn't happy, and she attacked me... My guide, Neill Hawley, had to shoot her with his crossbow... He was going to keep her as a trophy, but was nice enough to give me her skull and a feather!
Her skull is being cleaned.... Will be photographed later.

Ook, you're quite right! Keep an eye out then!

No waay! You're very lucky - I can't wait to see the photographs. I'm taking that Neill Hawley with me when I go out and somehow get attacked by monster birds.

For one of the smaller ones (like the two I've made, which I still have both) they'd be $40.
I'm working on a larger horse one with a REALLY Unique horn on it, but since the mustang skull ran me $150, the finished unicorn would need to be worth about $200-225 when I'm done.

get em while i'm still unfamous!!! xD
I figure the unicorns have about 2 hours of work into them.... I get the skulls from the trash at my workplace (or have the other taxidermists save them) One horn was sculpted out of left over stuff I made up.... and one horn was from a duiker (I got like.... 10 more of them)
