It was said to be larger than a bear and resemble a walking football, with a tough, shiny, black hide[1] that nothing could pierce. The only way to kill it was said to be fire, which caused the creatures to explode.[2][3] References1. ^Cox, William T. with Latin Classifications by George B. Sudworth.
