In common legend, if a traveler meets a chickcharney and treats it well, they will be rewarded with good luck, while treating a chickcharney badly will result in bad luck and hard times. It is said that they make their nest by bringing several pine trees together and making their nest in the middle. Several of these tree formations have been sighted.
28. The Bonnacon is a mythological creature from European folklore that resembled a bull with inward-curving horns and a horse-like mane. Because its horns were useless for self-defense, the bonnacon was said to expel large amounts of caustic feces from its anus at its pursuers, burning them and thereby ensuring its escape.
