Lore
Bonnacon is a bizarre creature from medieval European bestiaries, resembling a bull with a horse-like mane, known for its cowardly yet deadly defense: it flees but expels burning dung over great distances to scorch pursuers. Originating from Asian plains in lore, it symbolizes both comical cowardice and unexpected danger, often used in moral tales to illustrate how even the meek can harm when cornered. Its flaming excrement made it a humorous yet cautionary figure in manuscripts, blending absurdity with peril in the tradition of fantastical beasts.
