I for one will never stop believing in these beautiful and magical creatures, but recently scientists have found proof of them roaming the planet around 29,000 years ago. Granted they looked more like a rhinoceros than a horse and the “Elasmotherium sibiricum” lacked any magical abilities. The study published in the American Journal of Applied Sciences revealed they were around 9000 pounds, 15 feet long and six feet tall. The discovery of the fossilized “unicorn” skull was a complete shock to researchers given they were thought of to have gone extinct 350,000 years ago.
