"Japanese names many same name on mythical and real animals. The Japanese text for Kirin is the same as giraffe. How do you explain that? I thought if you can share your name with a vegetable, you would know what is going on.

That's the creature I'm looking at -- and it is NOT a tapir. For more information, see the discussion page for "tapir," where I've posted more detailed comments. The gist of it is as follows.Here is a reference to an image from 1791 that shows a “dream-eating” Japanese supernatural creature that has an elephant’s trunk and tusks. It is NOT a zoological tapir.....So there you have it. The Edo period dream-eater was drawn in at least some contemporary Japanese sources with an elephant’s head. Modern Japanese dream-eaters are zoological tapirs. They are NOT the same."
