Indrik
Template:Short description In the Dove Book and Russian folklore,Template:Sfn Indrik or the Indrik-Beast (Template:Langx) is a fabulous beast, the king of all animals, who lives on a mountain known as "The Holy Mountain" where no other foot may tread. When it stirs, the Earth trembles.Template:Sfn The word "Indrik" is a distorted version of the Russian word for unicorn (Template:Langx).[1] It is described as a gigantic bull with legs of a deer, the head of a horse and an enormous horn in its snout, making it vaguely similar to a rhinoceros.
The Russian folkloric creature gives its name to a synonym of Paraceratherium, Indricotherium, the biggest land mammal ever to live.
