Merloin

Merloin: noun. While many people are of the opinion that merloin is simply a misspelling of the word merlion (a mythological creature which has gained substantial popularity in Singapore), a merloin is actually a body part of merpeople and sea cows. In merpeople (at least according to Walt Disney), the merloin is the lowest part of the body with recognisably human characteristics. In sea cows, the merloin is said to be the most delicious part of the animal. This is a hoax. Sea cow meat is incredibly disgusting, which is why angry sailors drove Steller's sea cows extinct in the belief that such unholy excuse for food should not roam the seas. A similar fate met the dodo bird.
