BonnaconThis is a featured page

The Quick Intro:


Its appararance is the body and mane of a strong horse with the head of a bull. According to research it inhabits the North Region of the Republic Macedonia. It has an unussual deffence: It defendeds itself by emitting fire dung that could cover up to 600 yards ( 550 m ) in length.

More Detail:


The beast was described by Pliny the Elder as having the general appearance of a bull, but had the mane of a horse, horns curved back, and a neck a bit longer than that of the avarage bull. Its horns weren't built for fighting, instead its main defense was his fiery skunk-like attack. It is said that if it was attacked it would run away, leaving behind its trail of fire dung. This fire dung attack could set fire to trees and shrubs and of course scorch the fire of hunting dogs if they were unlucky enough to touch it.

This creature, as rare as some may find it, has actually quite the references to it. It has more than a dozen manuscripts that reference it. Some suggest that it had some resemblance to the European-Bison (which went extinct in 1919, but was reintroduced in Poland's forests and other places).

I almost died laughing when I saw the medieval depiction shown here! It even seems like the creature is straining and groaning between its teeth as it musters up a fiery ball of poo. The man clearly seems concerned, and he obviously knows what to expect as he has his shield raised in a defensive posture, coupled with a concerned look on his face with eyes barely peeking over the top of the shield! The man is clever, however, because he is close enough to the animal to deflect some of its own fiery feces back onto itself, thus burning the animal with its own weapon of choice. All in all, I wouldn't want to be the one to encounter an actual bonnacon, especially if it could run while expelling a 600-yard streamer of blazing crap! It's almost like the thing has a cannon for a butthole...

I like this site and it's listings, but unless you edit your entries (which have ridiculous amounts of errors) you'll turn any sensible readers away.
