Strange Animal Found In Canada
|
But the tiny First Nations community at the centre of the water monster story is apparently not willing to give up the attention, as residents conducted a second search in as many days for evidence of the elusive beast they call “omagimaakos” - or “the ugly one.” On Friday, boaters took to area waterways around the tiny community of Kitchenuhmaykoosib Inninuwug, near the shores of Hudson Bay, hoping to catch one.
Photos of the hairy, foot-long creature - with a bald face and paws, glazed eyes, warthog-like mouth, and a rat's tail - were posted on the community's website and quickly went viral.
According to the website, a dog that was walking with its owners - a pair of nurses who work for the federal government - pulled the animal from a creek earlier this month.
Darryl Sainnawap, a local band councillor, said the body of the creature is no longer at the side of the creek where it was left after the photos were taken.
