Introção em situações formais

El Hojarasquín del Monte es un personaje que proviene de las regiones montañosas de Colombia, especialmente de Antioquia. Se le describe como un hombre cubierto de hojas secas y ramas, que habita en los bosques y selvas espesas. Su misión es proteger la naturaleza y asustar a quienes maltratan los árboles o cazan sin necesidad.

Se dice que cuando alguien corta un árbol innecesariamente o daña la vegetación, el Hojarasquín aparece entre las ramas y la maleza, haciendo ruidos aterradores con el crujido de las hojas secas. Los campesinos que han tenido la desgracia de encontrarse con él aseguran que es mejor no desafiarlo, porque tiene el poder de hacerte perder en el bosque durante días, o incluso para siempre. Para calmar su ira, algunos le dejan ofrendas de frutas o flores en los troncos de los árboles.
