जाहकाहिशशक्रोडगोधानां कीर्तनं शुभम् । रुतं सन्दर्शनं नैष्टं प्रतीपं वानरऋक्षयोः ॥ ८६-४२ ॥

If the names of the chameleon, the snake, the hare, the hog or the iguana be heard or mentioned, prosperity is indicated; but the sound and the appearance of these creatures indicate evil. On the other hand, if the names of the monkey and the bear be heard or mentioned, evil is indicated, while both the sound and the appearance of the creatures indicate prosperity.
