In the mountains¹ there lives a beast that resembles an ordinary deer, but with four antlers, a horse-like tail, and chicken-like claws. It is adept at dancing² and the sound it makes is simliar to the pronunciation of its own name. 

¹ Tai Xing Mountain (太行之山 tài xíng zhī shān)

² Whirling (perhaps a mating ritual?)

The character 䮝 is written in traditional Chinese and is comprised of the radicals 马 and 军. This character has no simplified form and is therefore usually written as [马军] (where the '[]' mean that the two radicals should be merged to form one character).
