When Scott and Jackie Nelson first saw Coconut the horse, they couldn’t believe she was a Melbourne, Florida native.
Over three million people have marveled at how unique she is, and that’s because they had to record her beauty at the age of two days old to show the rest of the world.
At the age of two, the couple, who run a ranch named Down Under Colour and breed horses, took her outside for the first time on camera.
According to a YouTube description, Coconut is also referred to as a War Horse and has incredibly uncommon markings. The chief or the medicine man, a traditional and spiritual leader, would ride this horse, which was revered in Native American culture.
They must have one blue eye with liner surrounding it and a shield on their chest in order to qualify as a War Horse.
In Indian mythology, this eye is referred to as a Sky Eye. This one blue sky eye will convey the spirits of the Chief and Medicine Man to their gods if they perish in combat. That explains why she is so unique. Watch Coconut in the video below.

If you see this beautiful purple thing washed ashore on the sand this summer, DO NOT touch it
For those fortunate enough to have some disposable income earmarked for a summer getaway (yes, vacations are becoming quite the luxury these days), here’s a crucial heads-up: keep your eyes peeled!
There exists a stunning purple specimen that occasionally washes ashore on beaches, and let me tell you, it’s not something you want to handle or, for that matter, taste!
Believe it or not, there have been instances where influencers have deemed it fit to sample these venomous “adorable” entities.
As alluring and exotic as they may seem, Portuguese man-of-war pose a significant threat to human well-being.
These sea dwellers resemble captivating blue or purple-hued bubbles bobbing on the water’s surface, adorned with lengthy, dark purple tentacles trailing beneath them.
However, it’s precisely these tentacles that make encounters with Portuguese man-of-war perilous, as they’re brimming with venom and proficient at administering a painful sting.
Whether encountered in the water or on the shoreline, these creatures should be steered clear of, as they retain their sting-inducing capabilities even days after being washed ashore, regardless of their apparent state of decay.
A brush with these deceptively charming organisms can lead to a range of ailments, including cardiac distress, fever, shock, painful inflammation, allergic reactions resulting in breathing difficulties, paralysis, and in rare instances, death.
In the unfortunate event of a sting, forget about the age-old myth of urinating on the affected area! Instead, seek immediate professional medical attention.
Urinating can actually exacerbate the situation. Opt instead for a cold compress to alleviate swelling and discomfort.
