Curelom and cumom

The curelom (/kʊəˈrləm/)[1] and the cumom (/ˈkməm/)[2] are "useful" animals mentioned in the Book of Mormon. According to members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, these animals are thought to have possibly existed in North or South America. To non-adherents, these animals are solely creatures of the Book of Mormon.

The exact intended identity of these animals is not known. Joseph Smith, the reputed translator of the Book of Mormon, is not known to have elaborated on the subject of these animals.
