My grandfather told me these stores 30+ years ago. He loved telling y’all tales and convinced me they were real when I was little.

His story was they were called Aracarebas (no idea how it’s spelled) and they had two legs shorter than the other two so they could walk on hills. Only problem was they couldn’t turn around so they would have to circle the entire hill to get back to their barn at the end of the day.

He also told me stories about jackalope hunting and Naugas (small creatures that went extinct due to the popularity of naugahyde so they started having to make faux leather naugahyde) and I think a few others.

I actually found this post trying to get some reference for the old story. Thought I’d add my recollection.
