Cass Lake

I come from the Eagle Clan at Red Lake.

My family comes from the community of Obashing, Ponemah, as well as, uh, Cass Lake over at Leech Lake, and I've been living here at Fond du Lac Reservation for about 10 and a half years now.

How are you doing? How's the family doing?

Doing good.

THE HUGAG RITHMOPES IN ARTICULATUS the hoogag is a huge animal of the lake states its range includes western wisconsin northern minnesota and a territory extending indefinitely northward in the canadian wilds toward hudson bay in size the hoogag may be compared to the moose and in form it somewhat resembles that animal very noticeable however are its jointless legs which compel the animal to remain on its feet and its long upper lip which prevents it from grazing if it tried that method of feeding it would simply tramp its upper lip into the dirt its head and neck are leathery and hairless its strangely corrugated ears flop downward its fore-toed feet long bushy tail shaggy coat and general make-up give the beast an unmistakably prehistoric appearance the hoogag has a perfect mania for travelling and few hunters who have taken up its trail ever came up with the beast or back to camp it is reported to keep going all day long browsing on twigs flopping its lip around trees and stripping bark as occasion offers and at night since it cannot lie down it leans against a tree bracing its hind legs and marking time with its front ones the most successful hoogag hunters have adopted the practice of notching trees so that they are almost ready to fall and when the hoogag leans up against one both the tree and animal come down in its helpless condition it is then easily despatched The last one killed, so far as known, was on Turtle River in northern Minnesota, where a young one, weighing 1,800 pounds, was found stuck in the mud.

It was knocked in the head by Mike Flynn of Cass Lake.

part two of fearsome creatures of the lumber woods by w t cox the gumbaroo megalogasta In the foggy region along the Pacific coast, from Grey's Harbour to Humboldt Bay, there ranges a kind of creature that has caused much annoyance in the lumberwoods.

This is the gumbaroo, which luckily is so rare that only once in a great while is one seen.
