Definition
To remove the horns from an animal; to deprive of horns.
Etymology
From 'dis-' (prefix meaning 'apart' or 'reversal') combined with 'horn' (from Old English 'horn'). This verb emerged in agricultural contexts to describe a common animal husbandry practice.
Kelly Says
Farmers have 'dishorned' cattle for centuries to prevent injuries and reduce aggression, yet the practice remains controversial—a single word encapsulates centuries of debate about animal welfare.
