In the Amazon Rainforest, the pink dolphin (Boto Rosa, in Portuguese)
is considered a ravisher of young females, so that teenagers that
appear with a growing parasite in the belly often attribute it to
the "boto", who seduced her in human form and then went back to
the rivers.

The sad side of this story is that supersticious people consider
that the boto has aphrodisiacal properties, which makes them
a target for predatory hunting :-(

Alberto Monteiro

PS: for those who wish to watch a movie-version of this legend,
I recommend "O Boto".
