Cuahuacapra

The Cuahuacapra, Bubalus sanctus, is a species of water buffalo native to the island of Cuiciloa in Huitca. Its name literally means "cow-goat". The species is smaller than other water buffalo, having evolved to be the size of a goat due to the phenomenon of insular dwarfism. Despite this small stature, or perhaps because of it, they have a strong temperament. They can occasionally be seen attempting to shave their horns on rocks, tree trunks, or buildings when they are in an aggressive mood.

The Cuahuacapra has a role in the Huitcan faith of Cardinalism. They are sacrificed to the goddess Cualitzin every 3rd of each month, as the endemic species is both representative of the finding of Cuiciloa (of which Cualitzin allegedly had a role in) and Cualitzin's goat head is similar to that of the cuahuacapra.
