Unlike the frost wendigo, Earth wendigos are ponies that have committed the most heinous crime against nature imaginable: Cannibalism. The earth wendigo looked like a gaunt skeleton recently disinterred from the grave, its skin pulled tautly over its bones. With its bones pushing out against its skin, its coat is as black as the night. It has a head of a demonic elk with scruffy fur running down its back.

Being unclean and its body covered by many gaping wounds, the wendigo gave out a strange, eerie odor of decay and decomposition, of death and and corruption.
