| Sea Monsters in Vermont CAN YOU BELIEVE IT?
People actually think they’ve
seen sea monsters in Vermont's lakes.
These mysterious sea monsters are believed to live in Lakes
Champlain and Memphremagog.
Lake Champlain:
The creature that people say lives in Lake Champlain is named
"Champ." It looks like a giant snake and is supposed
to be 20 feet long. The Abenaki Tribes called this sea monster
"Tatoskok."
In 1609, in the midst of fighting the Iroquois Indians in
New York, a French explorer by the name of Samuel de Champlain
stumbled upon Lake Champlain. He also claimed to have seen
the giant serpent.
There are over 130 reports of Champ sightings since 1982.
