The Curupira is a fantastic folklore entity from the Brazilian indians. He has been described since the XVI century as the protector of the animals, and his feet are the opposite of the normal human being, so that his heel are turned to the front side of the body. His footprints mistakes the hunters, making they believe he is coming when he is going away and vice-versa. He allows hunting for eating, but he may kill or injury those that hunts for pleasure.
