*In ''[[Sofia the First]]'', the Mystic Isles episodes, one of the isles is called the Isle of Unicorns, where the winged unicorns reside, and in episode 29 of the 4th season "Forever Royal, Part 2", Sofia uses the amulet of Avalor to change her into a winged unicorn.

*The ''Skandar'' book series by [[A. F. Steadman]] feature winged unicorns that reside on an island between Britain and Ireland known simply as The Island. These unicorns hatch from eggs that appear in The Island's hatchery on the same day their destined riders are born and hatch when the riders turn thirteen. In order to find which of the Hatchery's eggs contains their destined unicorn, riders must place their right hand onto an egg. If the rider finds the correct egg, the unicorn inside will start to hatch from it and their horn will pierce their rider's palm, leaving a wound on it called a Hatchery wound. This procedure causes the unicorn to transfer some of its magic into their rider, allowing them to use magic connected to the elements of Fire, Earth, Air, Water and Spirit. Afterwards, the unicorn and their rider train at a school on The Island called The Eyrie for five years, where they are taught how to perform elemental magic (with their assigned element being their strongest). Eyrie students in their fourth and fifth year along with older riders participate in the Chaos Cup, an event where twenty five unicorns and their riders race whilst using elemental magic against their opponents. The winning rider earns the title of Commodore of Chaos, which involves them taking charge of The Island. The rider holds onto the title for a year unless they continue to win future Chaos Cups. It is known that the life of a bonded unicorn is connected to their rider, meaning that if the rider were to die, the unicorn would die too, though if the unicorn died first, their rider would survive. It is also known that unicorns that hatch and do not have a rider to bound with will become wild and ferocious. Wild unicorns are also immortal (but can be killed by those allied to the Spirit element) and have a decayed appearance. The series' protagonist Skandar Smith owns a unicorn called Scoundrel's Luck.
