Title: Michigan Dog Man?
Post by: Buddy on November 01, 2011, 05:53:34 PM
((Sorry if this is in the wrong area, there really didn't seem like a place to put this))


So, I was sitting in my anatomy class today and my teacher is from northern Michigan. He started talking about a legend called the Michigan Dog Man. It said that an old Native American shaman got caught between shapeshifting between a man and a dog. Ever since then, it has reproduced and now there are more of them today. According to the story, there have been sightings every ten years on the seventh year.

He said that there was a movie called The Legend and he also showed us a song about it. I have to admit, the song made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up.


So what do you guys think? I think that it is just a story that has been passed down through the generations. It is still a cool story.

That's a new one on me.  Sounds like fun.

And then there's the famous  jackalope (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jackalope):

If the creationist version of evolutionary theory is correct, then we should be able to produce such animals in a generation ;D
