A horn is hollow, and it is made up of a hard skin tissue, which is similar to a fingernail.
Animals have a variety of uses for horns and antlers, including defending themselves from predators and fighting members of their own species (horn fighting) for territory, dominance or mating priority. In animal courtship many use horns in displays
I like horns, find them really interesting as i circle back to ‘why’ do they have them…. ?? so my Q for today is> why aren’t we humans then inclined to have huge, long nails?? Just saying 😉
Very nice
Very detrimental to daily life… Unless you want horns on your head as a show of power, or as self-defence, then guys don’t need to box each other, just race around stabbing each other with their horns! What a sight!
I have seen some humans with nails way longer than normal. Just sayin’. 😉
Yup! Nasty…
I guess if we don’t have to do any physical labour we can grow our nails as long as we want. Horny hands!
Eyeeeeewwwwwwww
Beautiful animal!
