    Kamichi \Ka"mi*chi\, n. (Zo["o]l.)
    A curious South American bird ({Anhima or {Palamedea
    cornuta}), often domesticated by the natives and kept with
    poultry, which it defends against birds of prey. It has a
    long, slender, hornlike ornament on its head, and two sharp
    spurs on each wing. Although its beak, feet, and legs
    resemble those of gallinaceous birds, it is related in
    anatomical characters to the ducks and geese ({Anseres}).
    Called also {horned screamer}. The name is sometimes applied
    also to the {chaja}. See {Chaja}, and {Screamer}.
