Sketch of a Runa Uturuncu! This imposing creature was commissioned by @sassafrass1111 on Ig
This protector of the jungle is a mythical cryptid-like beast from the Argentinian folklore- these were sorcerers that had found a way to magically transform into powerful beasts-either pumas (cougars) or Jaguars.
They could be identified by their bipedal stance, their remnants of clothing and tribal adornments, and the fact they always had five digits in every paw, unlike regular mountain lions- who have four main toes.
Did you know this old folk creature? What do you think of this depiction?
