~ Kailiauk ~ "The red savages depend for their very lives on the Kailiauk," said Kog. "He is the major source of their food and life. His meat and hide, his bones and sinew, sustain them. From him they derive not only food but clothing and shelter, tools and weapons." {Savages of Gor, page 50}
~ Marsh Gant ~ I heard a bird some forty or fifty yards to my right; it sounded like a marsh gant, a small, horned, web-footed aquatic fowl, broad-billed and broad-winged. Marsh girls, the daughters of rence growers, sometimes hunt them with throwing sticks. {Raiders of Gor, page 4}
The cries of the marsh gants were about us now. I saw that her hunting had been successful. There were four of the birds tied in the stern of the craft. {Raiders of Gor, page 10}
... poles of fish, plucked gants, slaughtered tarsks ... {Raiders of Gor, page 41}
I had carried about bowls of cut, fried fish, and wooden trays of roasted tarsk meat, and roasted gants, threaded on sticks, and rence cakes and porridges, and gourd flagons, many times replentished, of rence beer. {Raiders of Gor, page 44}
Before the feast I had helped the women, cleaning fish and dressing marsh gants, and then, later, turning spits for the roasted tarsks, roasted over rence-root fires, kept on metal pans, elevated above the rence of the islands by metal racks, themselves resting on larger pans. {Raiders of Gor, page 44}
~ Qualae ~ ... and these are often used for hunting light game, such as the brush-maned, three toed Qualae. {Raiders of Gor, page 4}
~ Sausages ~ Another had strings of sausages hung about his neck and shoulders ... {Mercenaries of Gor, page 36}
~ Tabuk ~ Swift, gazelle-like animals, known for their sweet meat and speed; generally served roasted
Gripped in the talons of the tarn was the dead body of an antelope, one of the one-horned, yellow antelopes called tabuks that frequent the bright Ka-la-na thickets of Gor. {Tarnsman of Gor, page 145}
... my mouth watered for tabuk steak ... {Outlaw of Gor, page 76}
The tabuk is the most common Gorean antelope, a small graceful animal, one-horned and yellow, that haunts the Ka-la-na thickets of the planet and occasionally ventures into its meadows in search of berries and salt. It is also one of the favorite kills of a tarn. {Outlaw of Gor, page 126} |
