== Overview == The creature is nocturnal. Because of its backward feet, it is hard to be sure which way it has gone by looking at its footprints. Some believe that it brings death, and it is said that one who looks it in the eye risks being bewitched permanently. Its only vocal sound is a kind of whine or chirp.
