Wow! This is so unbelieveable, I would have never thought in a million years that a whale was really a unicorn. If unicorns were never a horse why did they have us to think that for all these years? Why was it covered up by saying it was a horse? Its beautiful,but did they not know much about it to say it was a whale?
