Baka

In Hindu mythology, a demon killed by
the god Krishna during Krishna’s
childhood in Braj. Baka is one of the
demon assassins sent by Krishna’s
wicked uncle, Kamsa, to try to get rid
of the god. He comes to Braj in the
form of a giant crane (baka) and swallows Krishna and his companions, but
he is killed when Krishna expands to
such a giant size in Baka’s stomach that
the demon explodes.
