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

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.
