Is a unicorn the same as pegasus?

Answer 1

A Winged Unicorn and a horned Pegasus are the same creature, know as a Unisus or a Pegacorn which is a combination of the two mating together into a hybrid. It is a more recent creation and isn't talked about in ancient stories given that the Pegasus is Greek and the Unicorn is trace back to European Pagan mythology and then later on adopted by Christian mythology. The two would not have met until later on, mostly adopted by artist to create more interesting pictures.

(most are on velvet)

to simplify things, they are the same creatures, just more than one name. The winged unicorn and horned pegasus are both magical horses with a single, beautiful horn, and huge, majestic wings. People might have given them many names to show wich one they like better, or to make things complicated. More names include...

Unisus and Pegacorn, unicorn pegasus, and ,yes, horned pegasus and winged unicorn.

Answer 2

An unicorn is basically a horse with a single horn in the middle of its forehead, although some sources equips it with goat like hooves and a tail like a lion's. A pegasus is a horse with wings strong enough to fly. Wings are feathered like a bird's.

Answer 3

Well, first of all, they are both mythical creatures. They're both very similar to horses, except the unicorn is smaller, lightly built, with cloven hooves and a horn. The pegasus is basically a unicorn (minus the horn) with wings. Well, I guess pegasi could have horns, but most are drawn without. So there you have it. (Oh, and they're both magical, so they can do lots of cool stuff.)

Answer 4

Yes, but they have more characteristics than that, such as white fur. Here is a pretty accurate photo: http://lilymichaud.files.wordpress.com/2007/09/unicorn.jpg~Kidiu
