Lore

The Chonchon is a mythical bird from Mapuche religion also present in Chilean and southern Argentine folk myth that announces misfortune.

The Chonchon has the shape of a human head with feathers and talons. Its ears, which are extremely large, serve as wings for its flight on moonless nights. Chonchons are supposed to be endowed with all the magic powers of the kalku (sorcerors), and can only be seen by other kalkus or by wizards that want this power. Although the fearsome appearance of a chonchon would be invisible to the uninitiated, they would still be able to hear its characteristic cry of "tue tue tue", which is considered to be an extremely ill omen, usually predicting the death of a loved one.
