Animals in the deer family have antlers. Things like sheep, goats and cows have horns....oh, and the Yak woman at the Carnival where cousin Eddie’s oldest son works...


I think saying horns just sounds better. Saying antlers is like saying Hollow instead of Holler.

"All I saw was big ol' horns runnin' down the holler!"
or
"I saw a large ungulate with antlers moving hastily in the hollow."

The first response just seems right
