What Obscure Animal are you?
What Spooky Being are You?*More About Ogopogo
Ogopogo is a Canadian Lake Monster who apparently lives in the lake in my town. Ogopogo has not been seen all that often (at least not reliably) but it sure is popular around here! It even has it's own stupid looking statue on the beach, and a man who recently swum the entire length of the Okanagan Lake claims to have seen several ogopogos on his trip.
Ogopogo is a harmless creature with a long, snake-like body and a goat-like head. He's very very big, (15-20 feet long) but the lake is also unusually deep for a lake, so no worries about cramping.
Although ogopogo is harmless, he has drowned a couple of horses back in the 1800s. Ogopogo was acknoledged by local natives, who called him n'haaitk. They used to leave sacrifices of small animals for him by the lake, by his supposed lair, an bunch of submarine caves.
Go figure.
