兔舐毫望月而孕，口中吐子。 ～《博物志 卷四》
In Chinese #folklore, even rabbits are touched by lunar magic. A female rabbit is said to conceive not through ordinary mating, but by licking the fur of a male, lifting her eyes to the moon, and later spitting tiny rabbits from her mouth.

Two photos showing the carving and use of the "toy" called a "dumb-bull" or bullroarer. SOURCE: "Foxfire 6 : shoemaking, one hundred toys and games, gourd banjos and songbows, wooden locks, a water-powered sawmill, and other affairs of just plain living" page 195-196
