WATER PANTHER
Algonquin and Ojibwe Demon
Also known as Mishibijiw, Mishipeshu, Underwater Panther, Water Lynx, Water Tiger
The dreaded Native American Dragon
This demonic creature causes floods and destruction – and also has a fondness for dragging humans to a watery doom.
Although it is furry, you’re not likely to confuse it with a land panther as it has snaky bits, traces of toadery and may even have bison’s horns. Also, normal panthers don’t attempt to drag you into the water and drown you.
Warning: There may be more than one of these beasts – he is known among various peoples under several different names. Some folk claim he is really a large alligator, but that’s plain silly.
