Description
The water panther
"Native Americans were a very religious people, it stands to reason that there is religious and mythical significance of the figures and symbols on the petroglyphs rock, one being several mythological panther or "water panther" images. The water panther is well-known to be a creature of the Great Lakes tribes' mythology."
