Adlet

hard-out at age 15.

There is, of course, the Adlet from Inuit folklore, but that wouldn't be in Northern Virginia.

Adlets are half-human, half-dog hybrids that are...

Interestingly, the story for that comes from...

This woman has children with a dog because she doesn't want to marry a man.

They call them...

the Adlet.

You linger a little longer than you planned at the end of your hike.

The sun is low now, spilling gold across the landscape.

Being different doesn't mean we have to be divided.

Sometimes it can open our eyes to the beauty and joys of cultures different from our own.

So where are these beings said to be found? And if you happen to cross paths with one, what could you actually do about it? In Canada, the Adlet are most closely connected to the Arctic regions of Nunavut, as well as parts of northern Quebec and Labrador.

The stories recorded by early researchers like Franz Boas came from Inuit communities around Hudson Bay, Labrador, and the Baffin region, although exactly how the Adlet were described could change from one community to another.
