Rare calf with three horns born on Alberta farm


Farmer Allan Galliford was on the horn of a dilemma.

He first noticed an odd-looking tuft of hair on the forehead of the Simmental-Hereford-cross calf when she was born a year ago in March.

A month later, when he began vaccinating and dehorning calves, he noticed a third, upturned horn had sprouted in the middle of her forehead, similar to a unicorn.
