Oh, Modern PERIOD, not "modern times". That's a big difference.
Of course, as you say, not NEARLY big enough.
Please provide some actual evidence to support your outrageously stupid comment.
While it is possible that there are one horned horses that died out, unicorns can also simply be in reference to any one horned animal, too.
Here is a Science book on unicorns.

Well, you will not know unless you watch it.
After years of watching video "evidence" this is why I never watch videos any more.
So if I watch the video and no evidence is provided, then I'll certainly have wasted that time. It would certainly go a long way if you could at least let me know that the video contains/presents evidence before I bother to watch it. But as a sign of good faith, sure I'll take a peek.

It said in Revelations that a great red dragon, otherwise known as Satan will wait for the baby to come out of the woman, to devour it. So we know that God created all living things, but I'm not sure if dragons, dinasours, insects, flies are part of His creation.
I believe and understand that according to the Bible, everything that exists, is because of God’s creation.
If Satan is in another name dragon and is also fallen angel, I believe he was created by God.
That's... not exactly a scientific work. At least not in terms of "this is proof of unicorns being real things". It's an exploration of the development of the unicorn as a creature of myth and legend.
No evidence exists for horns in equidae, however a relative of the equids, the rhinos, do often sport horns.
The word (re'em) which the translators of the KJV have rendered as "unicorn" (borrowed from the Vulgate's unicornis), does mean "horned", though the beast most think it is a reference to is the now extinct aurochs, the ancestor of domesticated cattle (in the same way that domesticated dogs are descended from wolves). It doesn't refer to a single-horned equid.

If God compared the devil to a dragon, then that means God just compared our adversary to a make believe fictional creature. However, there is nothing more than the devil wants than for men to think he is fictional. Yet, God is not the author of confusion. We read in the story of Job about the Leviathan (Which is an exact description of what a dragon would be like). At the end of the book of Job: God is telling Job about his amazing creation and this dragon like creature is a part of that creation. People have a hard time with accepting things that are miraculous within God's Word so they just write it off as fiction or as a fable. But they are wrong. God's Word is true.

Words can change with the passage of time. The word "gay" used to mean happy but now it means something else. So unless we lived during the time period of when the Bible was actually written, we cannot know with 100% certainty that we know all their vocabulary with pin point accuracy like they did. There is a chance that one horned horses might have existed (as silly as that may sound to actually say that). Yes, they could be the legendary aurochs (i.e. cattles with one horns), but we honestly do not know. Currently, I am labeling the word "unicorn" in the BIble as being any one horned animal where it's appearance is a mystery. For the Bible does not really describe it physically in appearance.
The idea that the "unicorn" is a one-horned horse is predominantly modern. Medieval bestiaries and and classical fantastic works from antiquity often shown it as a more goat-like creature.
Or as the aurochs
What's changed is that the term "unicorn" means in the modern mind a one-horned horse. Not the other way around.

You been reading Harry Potter?
I'm at around the 6 minute mark, dude is talking about the Hebrew word תַּנִּין (tannin) meaning explicitly "dragon", this is problematic. The word here is used to describe sea beasts (as in Genesis 1:21, probably whales), it is also used to mean serpent, Moses' rod turned into a tannin, there is warning about the poison of tannin and asps. To bring in the LXX here is an obfuscation, the Greek of the LXX does translate tannin as drakon, from which we get the word "dragon", but drakon means "serpent"; again drakon is used to mean "serpent" in the LXX, consider Exodus 7:10,
"εἰσῆλθεν δὲ Μωυσῆς καὶ Ααρων ἐναντίον Φαραω καὶ τῶν θεραπόντων αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐποίησαν οὕτως καθάπερ ἐνετείλατο αὐτοῖς κύριος καὶ ἔρριψεν Ααρων τὴν ῥάβδον ἐναντίον Φαραω καὶ ἐναντίον τῶν θεραπόντων αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐγένετο δράκων"
Moses' rod became a drakon, a serpent.
As for the "jackal" use, tannin comes from tan, a desert creature that suckled its young (Lamentations 4:3) and which gave a mournful cry in the night (Job 30:28-29), which is recognized by ancient Jewish commentators as referring to the jackal. Serpents don't suckle their young or give off a mournful cry, jackals do. Though some commenters believe the intent is "sea beasts" aka whales.
Aaaand yeah, I'm not seeing any evidence whatsoever being presented in this video. Granted that I started to skip ahead a few seconds now and then because all I was seeing was conjecture, speculation, and baseless statements being made.
Is there a specific point in the video where there's evidence being presented and I'm missing it?
