"WHAT IS A HODAG," you ask? 

It is a mythical beast that was rumored to stalk Wisconsin's Northwoods at the turn of the last century. Eugene Shepard from Rhinelander capitalized on the rumors by turning the non-existent mythical animal into a home-made sideshow-attraction at the County Fair. 

News stories about the ferocious beast he "captured" spread coast-to-coast. But when The Smithsonian came to see the live Hodag --  Shepard admitted it was a hoax.  Over a Century later, my hometown of Rhinelander is still "HOME OF THE HODAGS."
