Do unicorns live in earth and are real?
There is no proof that unicorns actually exist or existed.
The first ever idea of unicorns came from cave paintings dating back to 15,000BC, which depicted horned animals. The discoverers initially thought the animals in the cave paintings had one horn, due to the small drawings and weathering to them over the years. But it has in fact since been shown that the animals in the paintings had two horns and are likely to be paintings of antelopes, whose bones were also found in the caves.
Unicorns were also mentioned in Ancient Greek literature by Ctesias, who gave them the name "Unicorn", but it has since been found that he was actually describing an Indian Rhinoceros, also known as the one-horned rhinoceros. This was further confirmed when Genghis Khan wrote that he called off the invasion of India due to witnessing 'terrible and brutal one-horned beasts ridden by man', which today we understand were War Rhinos, similar to War Elephants.

Secondly, nobody knows, because unicorns are mythical creatures and no proof of a unicorn ever existing has been found.

Does a unicorn make a good pet?
The prefix 'uni' stands for unus or one. The suffix 'corn' stands for cornus or refers to the horn on the unicorn's head. Therefore, the name comes from 'one horn'.
Uni, means "one", and cornus is the latin word for horn. So unicorn means single horned. So it is a one-horned horse.
Uni- from the latin word 'unus' meaning one (eg unicycle- one wheel). Corn-from the latin word 'cornus' meaning horn, so unuscornus, unicorn, one horn.

The unicorn's horn is said to be able to nullify all poisons. It has also been used to break certain enchantments but I'm certain only minor ones.

Well there are many different types of Unicorns. But yes, there are unicorns that are made of cheese. You can find these unicorns late at night, I'd say around 3am, in your backyard. BUT in order to see them, you need to take 2 string cheeses and put them up your nose. If you still don't see the Cheese Unicorns after its 3am and you have the string cheese up your nostrils, you need to take another string cheese and put them in your ears. Then you should see them !

Is a unicorn an anorexic rhino?
"Unicorns" always were rhinos. "Unicorns" in the sense of mythical horned horses have never existed.
"Unicorns" were actually single-horned rhinos (the Indian Rhinoceros), which were used as beasts of war in ancient times. They were misinterpreted as a mythical creature.
See this related question: Do Unicorns Exist?
Presumably a unicorn, which is a mythical creature that looks exactly like a horse with a single horn growing out of its forehead, moves just the way horses do. The horn would not change the way it moves. Different stories about unicorns sometimes vary in their descriptions.
But they all move by using their legs.
The word 'unicorn' also appears nine times in the King James (1611) version of the Bible.
(i.e. Deut 33:17; Numbers 23:22, 24:8; Job 39:9,10; Psalm 22:21, 29:6, 92:10; Isaiah 34:7) It is believed that the original Hebrew words refer to the wild ox, as the later Revised Versions render it. (See the New International Version and other translations)
If it is the wild ox that is being referred to in these bible verses, it also moves ... by moving its legs!

Do unicorns exist in real life?
In the myths it said unicorns lived in Australia and refused to get on Noah's ark. So they are extinct buried deep in the earth. One day scientist should find them.
I read that out of a book in my local libary.
Unicorns are not real! Because when Noah was making the ark there was no room for the other animals so the flood killed the unicorns.
For the nonreligious, the unicorn is a mythological creature like a hydra or a leprechaun.
Is there any proof that unicorns exist?
Hunters have searched but no proof, DNA or anything to do with a unicorn has been found so to answer your question no
Answer
Never mind proof, there is no evidence that unicorns exist (or existed) at all. In the philosophy of science there is no such thing as proof, only refutation or the build-up of supportive evidence. Narwhals and oryx are often implicated to explain the inspiration with which humans conjured the unicorn myth. But narwhals and oryx (the silhouette of which looks like a single horned animal) are not unicorns. Evolutionarily, there is presumably nothing to stop a perissodactyl (horses, tapirs and rhinoceroses) evolving a horn. If rhinoceroses have horns, perhaps the horse family can too. The fact is that the horse family just doesn't (and never did as far as we know) have horns.
