 * Giraffidae: Giraffids have a pair of skin covered bony bumps on their heads, called ossicones.
 * Cervidae: Most deer have antlers, which are not true horns due to lacking a bone core and made of keratin.
 * Rhinocerotidae: The "horns" of rhinos are made of keratin and lack a bone core.

Tusks
Tusks are pointed elongated teeth that protrude from the mouth and sometimes resemble horns.


 * Elephants
 * Walruses
