Weird search entry of the day

What the hell is a "muskegon" and why is someone searching my blog for it?

Isn't that a type of fish?? Northern pike or something like that?

It's a city in Michigan, I believe. And the fish is the muskellunge.

I foresee this turning into a rip-off of a funny Cheers gag...

It's what happens when a muskie slips the hook.

Oh. Kevin got it right.

The Muskegon, is the little known species of toy musk ox. They were breed by Michigan Native Peoples to trek through the bogs and frozen swamps of their native lands. They had to remove the musk glands at birth, just imagine 100 lb skunk.


Here's a couple of links to images of the wily Muskegon in their natural state.

I gather their natural environment is muskeg?
