Champ

The Lake Champlain Monster

Champ is said to be a sea creature that has been spotted in Lake Champlain in Vermont. Sightings of this sea serpent have gone back to at least the 1800's and possibly before.

The Abenaki and the Iroquois people that lived near Lake Champlain, told stories about a large creature living in the lake, which they explained as a large horned serpent. The Abenaki Indigenous people called this creature a Gitaskog and would warn people to stay away from the lake and not disturb the monster in it.

Many people believe that Champ might be a zeuglodon, a long, snake-like ancestor of our modern whale, while others believe it is some sort of supernatural creature.

Others believe that Champ is a garfish, large sturgeon or a large eel that is being misidentified.

Facts & Trivia

  • One sighting reported that Champ was about 187 feet long and it's neck extended over 15 feet out of the lake.
  • In Vermont, there is a baseball team is known as the Lake Monsters and of course, their mascot is Champ.

Questions to Ponder

  • Is this a sea creature that has survived since prehistoric times such as a zeuglodon?
  • Is it a supernatural creature?
