  We study the baryonic sector of QCD with quarks in the two index symmetric or
antisymmetric representation. The minimal gauge invariant state that carries
baryon number cannot be identified with the Skyrmion of the low energy chiral
effective Lagrangian. Mass, statistics and baryon number do not match. We
carefully investigate the properties of the minimal baryon in the large N limit
and we find that it is unstable under formation of bound states with higher
baryonic number. These states match exactly with the properties of the Skyrmion
of the effective Lagrangian.
