Question

Specific term required. Henry H. Tryon described how stories of these beings were spun with a combination of a “colorful bit of description” and “an arresting sport of personal experience” by veteran workers teasing newbies. Tryon’s text on these beings illustrates a cat with a mechanical-jointed arm grasping a bird. An earlier field guide to these beings was dedicated to the “Concatenated Order of Hoo-Hoo” by William Thomas Cox. These beings include a thorn-covered alcoholic cat and a snake that grasps its tail in its own mouth and rolls around like a (*) hoop. (10[1])Another one of these beings is hyper aware of its wart-covered skin and can thus be tracked by its tear-stained trail. (10[1])Such beings may have been encountered by figures like Sourdough Sam and Johnny Inkslinger. For 10 points, the wampus cat and squonk are among what fantastical animals (-5[1])described in the tall tales of lumberjacks? ■END■ (0[5])
