National
Unicorn Day is celebrated on April 9 each year. It was first introduced in 2015
and it is a special day to celebrate the wonderful, mythical creatures that are
unicorns. Known as creatures of legends, unicorns are famous for their single,
spiralled, pointy horn and sleek white coats and tails.
Unicorns
have been a popular mythical creature since Ancient Greek times when people
believed they lived in exotic India. While they were once considered to be
fierce, powerful animals, many now see them as a symbol of love, purity,
enchantment, and magic. They also appear in many movies and cartoons as magical
creatures. Both adults and children find a fascination with unicorns. They also
continue to find their way into fantasy novels alongside other mythical
creatures.
