The dahu is a well known legendary creature, theme of jokes among natives or mountains wealthy city dwellers (with a somewhat arrogant attitude and a poor knowledge of the countryside).
The mountaineers working as hunting guides would take advantage of the gullibility of some tourists to lure them into the "dahu hunt" (in french "chasse au dahu"). The supply of naive hunters had dried up, and the dahu hunt enjoyed a second life as a summer camp spoof.
Recreational "dahu hunts" are sometimes organized as outdoor activities in France and Switzerland.
