Having been chased by both wild and domestic turkeys I think I need to learn to say Huehxolotl. "big monster" is very appropriate

What’s funny is that in Spanish the bird is called “pavo” which comes from a Greek word meaning “peacock.” A peacock in Spanish is “Pavo Real” and has nothing to do with Christopher Columbus’ “India”

El primer lugar al que llegó Cristóbal Colón no fue Norte América. Cristóbal, en su primer viaje al continente americano llegó a una isla que él llamó San Salvador, el 12 de octubre de 1492.

Todo el mundo llamándolo en base al lugar de donde creían que procedía, y los españoles vamos y lo llamamos "pavo". La chica no lo ha mencionado, probablemente porque no le iba bien con el argumento, o no lo sabía

Darihu :
Todo mal, porque el ave al que ella se refiere es al Numididae y es diferente del Pavo, Guajolote o Cocono, está confundida dado que son dos Aves distintas y sí la confusión vino de los Europeos.

Xolotl guides the death in their journey to Mictlan. Ajolote, Xoloitzcuintli y Guajolote, are not “monsters”. It’s closer to a magic animal or dog.
