Yamabiko (山彦, yamabiko) is a Japanese creature that manipulates soundwaves in a mountain.

Yamabiko in Touhou

Yamabiko were once a common youkai that lived on every mountain. When the rumors within the humans of the village created a natural explanation for the voices of the yamabiko, many humans had stopped shouting at the mountains. This resulted in the death of many yamabiko and their population continues to decline, threatening their species to a natural extinction.[1]

Trivia

  • Yamabiko are the only youkai in Gensokyo who are known to be threatened to extinction due to reason of the natural world. Although, becuase the health of their population was never stated, it is not known to what extent their numbers had dropped to or the rate at which they're continuing to drop. [1]
