* The sheer diversity of horned/antlered animals today and [[{{OlderThanDirt}} in Earth's past]] is a testament to the ostensible TruthInTelevision of this trope. However most examples from Nature tend to be subversions: horns are primarily for [[BlessedWithSuck display of fitness]]. Only when contenders for mating rights/territory/food are evenly matched are they used aggressively, though most of the resulting scraps are akin to wrestling matches. Things have GoneHorriblyWrong though. This doesn't stop horns being used as offensive weapons among species, especially when prey defend themselves against predators, though unlike the fictional examples it isn't their main function.
