DescriptionIt is said that the Wounaan who went in search for a mountain hog were devoured by wánganos, only a young woman and a young man were saved. There was a man whose profession was to destroy these herds of animals; as soon as he was notified he went and almost exterminated them, only a few of them fled and were saved.
