62: The Hodag - Cryptids

We’re travelling to the Northwoods of Wisconsin where the cheese is squeaky, the beer is cold and the scariest thing you could encounter in the woods is the infamous Hodag, a terrifying cryptid that haunted loggers for years. But where did the story of the Hodag originate? Was it really captured at the end of the 19th century? And what, for the love of God, does Paul Bunyan have anything to do with this?!

Snuggle up next to the campfire and join us for the infamous tale about the most ferocious beast of the Northwoods🌲👀
