#27 - What Is The Partridge Creek Monster?
Listen now
Description
In our twenty-seventh episode of Unsolved Canadian Mysteries, Kenton de Jong and Dylan Fairman discuss the 1903 and follow-up 1907 sightings of a strange creature near Partridge River in the Yukon. The 1903 sighting was by Georges Dupuy, James Lewis Buttler, Tom Leemore, Father Pierre Lavagneux, and five First Nations individuals. The 1907 sighting was by Father Pierre Lavagneux and ten First Nations individuals. Both describe a large creature, approximately 30 feet long, with feet five feet long, and claws a foot long. It was 12 feet wide, with a 10 foot long tail. It also had a small, square horn on its nose and the face of a dog. It was believed that the beast they encountered was a dinosaur, most likely a Ceratosaurus or at least another kind of theropod. The idea of a dinosaur living in the Yukon is absurd, but with additional sightings in 1928 in Siberia, as well as 1999 in Fairbanks, Alaska, you can't help but wonder, what is the monster of Partridge Creek?
