I went to a zoo once that had some really beautiful ankole-watusi cattle. I’d never seen an animal with such big horns! One of them did something that kind of blew my mind. It was standing where some branches were hanging over the fence and it just sort of -tilted it’s head- a few times to knock the leaves off with the tip of it’s horn. For some reason I had never considered they’d be so aware of where their horns are in space, and could use them to interact with things!
