That's right, @josemalavem. I remember reading Hombres de maíz and being surprised by the magical world presented by Miguel Ángel Asturias. In it we can appreciate the amount of references made to nature, as a way of demonstrating the worship that the Mayas had to her and their gods. In the case of the character you mention, the healer becomes a deer, which in the end dies and with him dies the animal part of the healer. This analysis can be interesting, because perhaps in each of us there is an unfathomable animal part, unknown to oneself. As always, thank you for commenting. ;)
