Thomas Jefferson Bowen, when traveling in Yoruba (modern Nigeria, Togo and Benin), heard about an animal called agbangrere, which has the body of a horse, the hooves of a cow, sorrel (lighter, coppery red that is similar to chestnut. Though, chestnut is darker than sorrel.) coat and a single black horn on the forehead, as long as an arm, coarsely rugose below and smooth towards the point. Its horn was also described in similarity to the horn of a large Antelope, though, this fact was denied by the villagers, with it being used as an órisha or idol. Sometimes, agbangrere would be slayed but the unfortunate slayer often a died within a year. One agbangrere was captured and presented to King Suta in Ilorrin. It refused to eat, so the king ordered it to be slaughtered and had his slaves eat its flesh. It was unknown what had happened to the horn of the agbangrere or its skull. Another agbangrere, prior, was hunted and its skull kept under a stack of bones at a hunter's temple at Bi-olorrun-pellu, though, Thomas Jefferson Bowen could not get the skull as he was not permitted to move the stack of bone out of the way.
