NAMED AFTER FIERCER ANIMALS

I've been having a further look into the numbers of people named after animals in the United States.  These are fiercer animals and the numbers are approximate.

Bear 1200
Lion 250
Tiger 600 (120 are female)
Puma 200 (male and female bearers)
Panther 65 
Cougar 55
Bobcat 15

Going on to birds I found

Eagle (600)
Hawk (1000)
Buzzard (103) - this figure includes Canada

Among the reptiles I would mention Alligator.  Although the number of bearers is 3, the shortened form Gator has 145 who share its name.  I found 45 examples of Lizard.  For Turtle I found 60, though sometimes this may come from a surname meaning Turtle-dove.  I encountered a single Tortoise.

STEWA RUTU

This is a strange animal indeed in the folklore of Japan.  It dwells in the water.  It has tentacles and the stomach of a cow.  It is said to have preternatural powers.

On one occasion a local official (dzongpon) is said to have decided to test its strength.  He placed an elephant in the water with the creature and awaited developments.  A ferocious struggle ensued between the two huge creatures, but then the elephant shambled ashore.  The stewa rutu was still clinging to it.  Local women poured hot sand on it and finished the beast off.

Whether there was only supposed to be one stewa rutu or more than one, I do not know, nor do I have a picture of this unusual creature.

This is a cryptid reported from Cameroon.  The Youlou, who live in the mountains, say it is a dry land creature.  Elsewhere it is thought of as water-dwelling.  It is said to have a lion's claws and a horse's body.  Tusks have also been mentioned.  Although the animal is known from hearsay, I can find no recorded sightings.  It is also reported from Chad and the Central African Republic.  Not all reports may refer to the same creature.  With the evidence to hand, one can only make guesses at its nature.
