Listen for an alarm "sneeze."
Accounts of unicorns' alarm sneezes in literature
include:
When alarmed, resting unicorns utter a small
sneezelike sound that alerts other nearby
unicorns to possible danger; this is especially
true of mothers guarding their fawns. On
hearing such a sneeze, the fawn will lower its
head and fold its ears back, so that it becomes
almost invisible in the grass, and it remains
thus until its hidden mother calls to it.
-- Paul A. Johnshard, Dragons and Unicorns: A
Natural History (1992)
It is not necessary to say "Gesundheit" to unicorns.
