Not all ruminants have horns. While many species, such as cattle and sheep, possess horns, others, like deer, typically have antlers instead, which are shed and regrown annually. Additionally, some ruminants, like female sheep and certain goat breeds, may be hornless. Thus, the presence of horns varies among ruminant species.

All ruminants have two toes therefore why are swine not ruminants?
It is proof that the conclusion that "all animals that are cloven hooved (or have 'two toes') are ruminants" is false. Swine are not ruminants because they have a simple stomach, not a four-chambered stomach, and thus are omnivorous animals. Other animals that are two-toed or cloven-hooved but are not ruminants are camelids (camels, alpacas, and llamas, for example), which are known as pseudoruminants due to the fact that they only have a three-chambered stomach.
