Can you explain why every unicorn horn I've ever seen much more closely resembles a narwhal tusk than a rhino's horn? Are unicorn horns even horns?!

narwhal tusks are teeth but rhino horns are hair

But what about unicorns?! Are they tusks or horns?!

So, by extension, narwhals are way more similar to unicorns than a fish and perhaps it's the rhino that's the odd one out.

yeah but that also mean they're closer to warthogs than either of the others
