Saola (Pseudoryx nghetinhensis)

This beautiful animal called saola was discovered in 1992 in Vietnam. The appearance of a saola is akin to an antelope because they are genetic cousins. Both male and female, have two parallel long, straight, pointed horns that have been measured to reach up to an amazing 20 inches, twice the size of their head. These creatures are considered the ‘Asian Unicorn’ because they are really mysterious and illusive, therefore information about them is limited.
