Maltese cave cows 

Used as an example of something that only really gullible people would believe in.

Born of the urban myth that cows in Malta live underground where it is cooler.

Gigeon 

A bird that looks, for all the world, like a cross between a goose and a pigeon.

Commonly found in urban duck ponds.

The gigeon in Swanswell Park hangs out with the geese, who must be better company than the pigeons.
