"We received so many calls from people and many came to see first hand the deer. Sometimes deer that boldly approached the fence visitors despite the fact that she is shy deer," said Tozzi.
One-horned deer are rare animals classified as though it does not mean there is no previous. but experts say that the deer with one horn right in the middle of the head is something never seen before. Tozzi said that this anomaly may have triggered the emergence of the legend of the Unicorn in the past.
