	Hodag - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Legends of the fl hodag were told earlier in the 19th century among the lumberjacks of the area.
		According to these, the hodag had risen from the ashes of an ox, in some legends it was Paul Bunyan's ox, Babe, which was burned for seven years to cleanse its soul of the profanity hurled at it by lumberjacks and its master.
		The smallest hodag of all, the cave hodag seems to be a slight modification or evolutionary successor of the sidehill dodge hodag, with at least three glowing eyes to enable it to see in the caves of Southwestern Wisconsin.

	The Hodag
		The Hodag, a creature native to Wisconsin, has the head of a bull, the back of a dinosaur, and the leering features of a giant man. Its legs are short, its claws are long, and its tail is spear-tipped.
		The soul of the ox emerged from the ashes in the shape of a Hodag, exuding a foul odor.
		Pictures showing a Hodag surrounded by men with pitchforks (similar to the one to the left) appeared on many Wisconsin postcards during the first decades of the 20th century.

	History of the Hodag
		Although the charred remains of this first Hodag were transported to Rhinelander and displayed, Shepard’s hunters were unable to capture the beast alive.
		In this capacity the Hodag attracted thousands of curious spectators and brought a disproportionate amount of attention to a small frontier community in the uppermost regions of the Wisconsin River Valley.
		Eventually the Hodag was discovered to be an elaborate hoax, its body, a carved stump covered with an ox hide; its horns and spikes derived from oxen and cattle; its movement controlled by wires; and its growl supplied by Shepard’s sons hidden in the monster’s lair.

	Hodags, Rhinelander, Wisconsin
		The fearsome Hodag, terror of the pine forests of northern Wisconsin, was first seen by a man named Eugene Shepard in 1893, in the woods outside of Rhinelander.
		Supposedly a resurrection of the restless spirit of dead lumber oxen, the Hodag reported by Shepard was a 200-pound, seven-foot-long, lizard-like beast covered with horns.
		It sells a selection of Hodag souvenirs (including photo postcards of the Hodag capture of 1896) and keeps two prime Hodags on display: a life-size replica in a glass case from 1951, and a smaller, furry Hodag, up near the rafters, which shows both the promise and limitation of modern monster taxidermy.

		Evidently Sheppard, a former forester, was attracted by the hodag's odor at the headwaters of Rice Creek in Oneida County, where he was able to trail a Black Hodag to the cave in which it lived.
		It should be noted that although the Rhinelander Daily News "advanced the theory that the hodag was a missing link between 'the ichthyosaurus and the mylodoan' of the ice age," some disbelievers proclaimed that the hodag was simply a large dog that had been covered with a horse hide and displayed in poor lighting.
		It is the author's belief that the hodag may have migrated to West Virginia with the extensive logging in the 1900's and, after finding a lack of swamps, which are usually found only on flat land, the hodag had to resort to living in caves.

		The Hodag was kept in a dark cage in dim light but hundreds came to see what they could, paying their hard-earned 10 cents each to hear Shepard describe the capture.
