A wumpus can cling to ceilings. It has an animal body. It has no hands. It is an 
omnivore. The Wumpus, by the way, is not bothered by the hazards since he has sucker
feet and is too big for a bat to lift. If you try to shoot him and miss, there's
also  a chance that he'll up and move himself into another cave, though by nature 
the  Wumpus is a sedentary creature.
-- Hunt the Wumpus

Wumpus, q, is a reference to the old game called Hunt the Wumpus. It is a strong animal that can cling to ceiling. It is a rather rare creature but not among the rarest. Should you ascend a game, you are pretty much guaranteed to meet at least a few wumpuses.
