Onza. Artwork of the hypothetical creature, Onza, with a freshly killed chicken. The onza is a cougar-like creature alleged to inhabit regions of Mexico. Witnesses report the Onza as more aggressive than a cougar, with longer ears, thin dog-like legs and a longer body. Examination on bodies alleged to belong to the onza reveal them to be no different to cougars. The study of mythical animals that are alleged to still exist is known as cryptozoology and the animals studied are known as cryptids. Other well known cryptids include the Loch Ness monster and the Yeti.
