Yeah - I thought that might be what was referring to. But there's
not one mention of it on google. Not to mention deer have antlers;
unicorns and rhinos have horns.

Sheesh. Has anybody heard that term before? It makes no sense as
there's nothing in common between deer and rats, horns and antlers
included.

Yeah - but at least it would make some sort of logical sense.
I would never confuse horns with antlers.
