zombie Unicorn described as an animal of great ferocity and strength (
Num .
23 :
22 ,
R .
V ., "
wild ox ,"
marg ., "
ox -
antelope ;"
24 :
8 ;
Isa .
34 :
7 ,
R .
V ., "
wild oxen "),
and untamable (
Job 39 :
9 ).
It was in reality a two -
horned animal ;
but the exact reference of the word so rendered (
reem )
is doubtful .
Some have supposed it to be the buffalo ;
others ,
the white antelope ,
called by the Arabs rim .
Most probably ,
however ,
the word denotes the Bos primigenius ("
primitive ox "),
which is now extinct all over the world .
This was the auerochs of the Germans ,
and the urus described by Caesar (
Gal .
Bel .,
vi .
28 )
as inhabiting the Hercynian forest .
The word thus rendered has been found in an Assyrian inscription written over the wild ox or bison ,
which some also suppose to be the animal intended (
comp .
Deut .
33 :
17 ;
Ps .
22 :
21 ;

92 :
