Ogopogo A-Go-Go!

The Ogopogo, also known as N’ha-a-itk,

Is reported to live in Lake Okanagan in British Columbia, Canada. Ogopogo is commonly described as a 40 – 50 foot long sea monster resembling the extinct Basilosaurus.

The name ‘Ogopogo’ is thought to have originated from a song originally performed at a dance hall in Vernon, British Columbia.

His mother was an earwig,
His father was a whale;
A little bit of head
And hardly any tail—
And Ogopogo was his name.

The Sylix people thought N’ha-a-itk was a water spirit, a man turned into a monster for murdering a respected elder.

It was said that the only animal who could tolerate his company was the rattlesnake.

. . . Which i guess must be the reason why no one can get close enough to take a clear picture of the Ogopogo! Ogopogo – $88
