Cadborosaurus

Whether a genuine entity, released from the fiery heart of a volcano, or a powerful symbol of nature's fury, the Batsquatch continues to cast its leathery shadow over the recovering mountains.

Now, the Pacific Northwest is home to one of the most compelling and scientifically debated marine cryptids in the world, the Cadborosaurus, known affectionately as Caddy.

This is not a creature of murky lakes, but a veritable sea dragon of the cold deep waters stretching from Alaska to California.

The creature's description has remained remarkably consistent for centuries, from the ancient legends of coastal First Nations to modern eyewitness accounts.

Its most distinct feature? Its head, which is almost universally described as being horse-like or camel-like, held aloft on a long, slender neck.

While sightings were common among sailors and locals for years, the legend solidified in the 1930s, when numerous credible witnesses, including a major in the British Columbia government and his wife, came forward with their accounts.

It was then that a local newspaper editor coined the name Cadborosaurus after its frequent appearances in Cadboro Bay.

The most tantalizing piece of evidence emerged in 1937.

That's a big one.

And the other one locally, more to the island, is Cadborosaurus.

That's our sea monster.

And That one's cool because they actually had a body that was found in 1937, which is really interesting.

They're interesting to say the least.

I don't know.

I do believe in Cadborosaurus, as we call him Caddy.

I mean, the ocean is just so big.

Yeah.

You know, it's like in the Pacific Northwest, there's cave paintings of an orca, otters, fish, and Cadborosaurus.

Okay, why did, would they, would they, would they have, you know, these, these pictures that they painted on rock that are of animals that we know exist and then this one that we're... that doesn't exist?

Yeah.
