I. N

Notas:

  • Etnográfica:
    A pretty red-brown rodent, smaller than a givenot (paca) which is hunted for its meat. Usually roasted. Sometimes then are stewed. Some also fry it. Kyakis and pacas dig dens with tunnels in the bush, often among the big tree roots. Some dogs are specialists for hunting givenot and kyaki (agouti). Despite their rabbit size, they can do a lot of damage if they have the chance to bite up the hunting dogs.
  • Léxica:
    They are all the same color. The babies are striped and speckled like fawns. Those who say puk saala probably use puk alone for givenot (kulii).
