    For my art project.. what animals have horns?

    I am doing an art project on Wednesday, and it will last me 3 weeks to do this. It'll be interesting. The art professor wants us to do research on pictures of animals that have horns, insects that has horns, but I am leaning towards animals.. Can y'all help me out?

    - Bighorn Sheep
    - Rhino

    Okay, call me stupid - do Great Horned Toads have horns made of 'horn' material, or is it just a skin thing?

    Here, this might help!
    The Difference Between
    Antlers and Horns

    Antlers, on members of the deer family, are grown as an extension of the animal's skull. They are true bone and are a single structure They are generally found only on males. Antlers are shed and regrown each year.

    Horns, found on pronghorn, bighorn sheep, bison, and many other bovine, are two-part structures. An interior of bone (also an extension of the skull) is covered by an exterior sheath grown by specialized hair follicles, as are your fingernails. In fact, your fingernails and the exterior sheath of horns are made of very similar materials. Horns are never shed and continue to grow throughout the animals life. The exception to this rule is the pronghorn which sheds and regrows its horn sheath each year.

    Ask your vet about microchipping. ~ It could have saved Kuhio's life.
