Yacu-Mama

Yacu-Mama is a fabulous marine monster, said to haunt the lagoons of the Amazon, and to suck into its mouth and swallow whatever comes within a hundred yards of it. Before bathing in a lagoon, where he apprehends its presence, the Indian traditionally sounds a horn, the effect of which is to make it reveal itself if it is there.
