Unicorns and Rhinoceros

We all know that the image depicted of unicorns nowadays is fake however why does the Bible mention the word unicorn? Well, interestingly enough I watched a video on YouTube a while back that suggested that the unicorns mentioned in the Bible are actually Rhinoceros. This was very intriguing to me. The word unicorn is mentioned around nine times in the KJV and it made me start to wonder. Gave me something to think about for sure and thought I would share my thoughts. Let me know what you think below. Don't be posting anything against chess.com rules, just your thoughts and be nice. 

It’s an interesting thought you know!

It doesn’t have to be religious. That’s why I said not to be going against chess.com rules. 😁

‘Yes, just an interesting discussion  

Aren't unicorns the national animal of Scotland?

Are they? 

yeah...

Google says so

I am sure there are millions of species that have come and gone, why not a unicorn?

There have been other unicorn-like species over time. Rhinos are only one of the many possibilities.

Because they're mythical creatures. 

it is one of the heraldic creatures that Scotland has chosen , also the Lion Rampant 

but i think the bruce chose the unicorn as the symbol as its natural enemy is the lion , which of course is a creature the english chose as a national anmal , 

not everything is feline caused ,,, but you have your obsession which causes no harm 

ever hear of a kelpie ?

what bores you may not bore another , but i guess cc is all about entertaining you mate , gladly that isnt the case 

the kelpie isnt an origin creature of the unicorn though , but i thought id include this mythological beast as it is Scottish in origin , perhaps also Irish , but both nations share a celtic myth link
