The jungle unicorn 

The jungle unicorn, a small, slight creature that dwells in the Amazon rainforest, is one of the rarest unicorn species in the world. Due to their shy and mistrusting nature, unicornologists haven’t been able to gather much information because they can’t gain their trust. Since they only live in unpolluted jungles and they refuse help from humans, the Jungle unicorn’s numbers are slowly decreasing, and scientists are trying desperately to gather information and save the beloved creatures while they still can. 

Because of their dislike of humans, Jungle unicorns prefer to dwell in the deeper parts on the jungle where they won’t be disturbed. They live in packs, and usually share nests in trees to conserve body heat through the unreliable temperatures of the jungle. Although they stay away from humans, Jungle unicorns have no problem with fellow animals and you can often find young ones playing with an array of other creatures. The rare mythical creature doesn’t like to stray far from home, and despite their shy nature they would stay and protect their nests rather than flee during an attack. 

One of the reasons jungle unicorns are so hard to find is that they are incredibly well camouflaged in their surroundings. They are covered head to toe in shaggy moss – coloured fur that they need to keep warm, and their manes and tails are long and tangled with flecks of black and reddish – brown. Their hooves are black and uneven, and their eyes are a deep glittering green, although they are usually covered by their long fur. 

One of the few ways to befriend a jungle unicorn is to give them food. Unicornologists have confirmed that their favourite food is fresh fruit, and they are extremely picky eaters, never settling for leaves or grass. If you feed them regularly, they will trust you and allow you to trust them and their youth.  

Although they are slowly finding out more about the majestic creatures, scientists say that we still have a lot to learn.
