[Autosarcophagy]

Range Trotters are the result of crossbreeding Orlov Trotters, Finnhorses, Welsh Cobs (section C & D) and Hanoverians. Later crosses of Quarter Horses, Paint and Appaloosas to gain color and to give a boost to their hardiness.With a height average of 13-15 hands, they're a hardy breed with characteristics for various disciplines.

Created for use as work, carriage and leisure riding horses originally, they now serve as long-distance range horses, such as work with Park Rangers and mounted officers.

Willing and eager personalities, most are quickly trained to be bombproof and therefore trusted mounts in all lines of work; some are being seen in local show jumping competitions, others are notably used in therapeutic sessions for their calm temperaments. Harness races and endurance trials are common for the breed, as they are able to sustain an extended trot without tire. Cross-Country competitions see some of the taller Trotters, but due to their cob lineage this is still uncommon.

Despite the variety of competitions and work these horses are being seen in, they are still famously skilled as endurance racers. Many competitors have chosen Range Trotters due to their tireless work ethic, as well as the ease in which they can be trained. Many have become champions in endurance trials, and they have quickly become a sought after breed for their natural ability.

Prompt: I think a single horned horse-like creature has existed at some point in history. Rhinos were famously called unicorns in the Bible.

A re'em, also reëm (Hebrew: רְאֵם), is an animal mentioned nine times in the Hebrew Bible. It has been translated as "unicorn" in the King James Version, and in some Christian Bible translations as "oryx" (which was accepted as the referent in Modern Hebrew), "wild ox", "wild bull", "buffalo" or "rhinoceros".

I also went on a safari tour the other day and saw a blackbuck 'unicorn' who was missing one horn! (: So they totally exist.

Prompt: "Do I believe in unicorns? But of course I do. I've met some before, both literal and figurative. I met a horse white as snow with a horn to match. I am employed by a noble house who claims the unicorn as their crest. One of said house's knights is mine betrothed, who is a unicorn in his own way. Hair of silver starlight, a smile bright as sunlight, and a heart gentle and pure. Even the ring he gave me bears a unicorn, to represent him, so he is always with me. So to confirm once again; Yes, I believe in unicorns. ~ Sullivan Maurus of the Silver Fuller"

Prompt: For sure! We humans just can’t see them as we aren’t pure enough for them to reveal themselves around. They hide behind a mystical cloak, though they do reveal themselves to innocent children in the time of need 💕

Prompt: Absolutely. A unicorn doesn't have to be a horse with a horn. It can be anything equally rare and precious. Using that definition, I've found plenty of unicorns in my life. My partner, my cat, my best friend, and my found family top that list.

Prompt: A few folks in our little community might have figured out that I have a real affinity for unicorns because as a child I truly, truly believed that they existed! But to understand why I so strongly believed in unicorns, I have to tell you a little story about the tooth fairy.

As a kid, I loved the tooth fairy. I was absolutely fascinated as a kid by fairies in general, and I'd spend hours outside with my sister building tiny fairy villages out of bark, leaves, sticks, and wildflowers. So of course I was elated when I started to lose my teeth because that meant the tooth fairy was going to visit me! I was more excited the night of a tooth fairy visit than I was on Christmas Eve, I desperately hoped I would wake up and catch a peek of a real fairy. Unfortunately that wasn't coming true, so I decided to write a letter to her in the hopes she'd write back... and she did (well of course my parents were wonderful enough to play along with my wild imagination)!

I wrote the tooth fairy letters with tons of different questions about what fairy life was like, but my most burning question was what she did with the baby teeth. To my great surprise and delight, the tooth fairy wrote that she takes the baby teeth and magically molds them into unicorn horns and hooves! I already loved unicorns as a kid, my favorite childhood plushie is a unicorn and I was a rabid horse gurl, but this lit a raging fire of unicorn love in my heart that still burns to this day.

Prompt: Yes, I do! I have probably ever since I was I little and understood stories. My favorite movie when I was younger was ‘The last unicorn’. I like to believe they are out there, just hidden away, like a sealed ancient treasure waiting to be found eventually.

Prompt: Yes! Even if we can’t see them or they don’t want us to see them, they exist. If at least one person believes it, then it exists in their mind, causing it to exist

Prompt:
It’s honestly not hard to believe in unicorns. They always portray unicorns has a mythological creature. However magical they always say unicorns to be, at the end of the day, they are just horses with a horn. There’s a long list of animals with physical traits that are a lot more harder to believe than a unicorn’s.
