The pletrok is depicted as a long haired beautiful animal, usually pure white in color. It has been used to represent virginity, but also as a metaphor representing strength, chaste love and faithful marriage. | These animals can be found in any mountainous areas.

The Teek Teek is a large oxen like animal. It is primarily a beast of burden, used as transportation and to pull heavy loads in rural areas, although Teek Teek meat is very tasty and versatile, although seldom eaten.
