Ipupiara is an aquatic water cannibal. He had hair all over his body and a mustache, so he looks like a half-human, half-sea lion about 3.30 meters in length. He kills people by hugging them until they suffocate.

It is known that Ipupiara liked to eat sailors off the coast of Brazil. In 1500, sailors claimed to have killed a sea monster by plunging a dagger into its stomach.

The ipupiar females have long hair, and they were "beautiful to look at."
