There's your tourists who venture to the town to experience the beauty and variety of wildlife. From Beluga Whales in the summer months to Polar Bears in the winter and early spring. LIfe flourished all around, which is what drew many to the town.
Permanent residents relied on the wildlife to provide a stable source of income for their families. Many took to the water after discovering how fishing was revolutionizing the World. But, just like any small secluded town, there's also rumors.
Some claim to have witnessed a creature like no other. A creature 40 feet tall. It has the ability to see with no eyes, doesn't eat despite having teeth. From eyewitness accounts, it moves fast and blends in with its surroundings, and mainly likes to hunt humans. Yikes!
From the Caribou River Park Reserve to the Wapusk National Park, sightings continue pouring in from around the Country.
