Yes, horns do contain nerves. In animals like cattle and goats, the horn is made of keratin and grows from a bony core that is connected to the skull. This bony core is rich in blood vessels and nerves, which provide sensation and help in the growth and maintenance of the horn. Therefore, horns are sensitive structures that can experience pain and discomfort if injured.

Are longhorn horns hollow?

No. Many horns, except for bison, are connected to the head by bone and nerves and blood vessels, like that in all cattle and other horned species, even those with antlers during the seasons when they are grown. Bison, however, their horns are grown from hair, not keratin, thus making them hollow.
