CALLITRICE

In the lore of medieval Europe, the Callitrice was a kind of satyr with a great beard and long, thick tail. It was a shy creature, avoiding the company of human beings and was rarely seen. According to a 12th-century bestiary, the Callitrice was believed to live in the remote regions of Ethiopia, where it may exist to this day, so steep and secluded are the mountains of that land.
