Description
In the mythology of the Haida Indians (Northwest coast of North America)
Vasgo (Wasgo, Gonakadet, Jig-ik-nak, Sea wolf) is a lake, sea monster with the body of a wolf and the fins of a killer whale.
Tlingit legends say that initially it was a man who pulled on the skin of a slain monster and got the opportunity to live underwater, getting food for the whole tribe, but now he hunts not for people, but for people.
