The Fox Snake of Lake Arrrgghhh
Careful where you fish, swim, or paddle your own canoe. Anything drastic that happens to you on a lake or a river is down to this wild water fox. He lives at the bottom of a whirlpool and that is never a good sign.
Nguruvilu is a curious hybrid of a fox and a snake. But don’t be too curious – he is deadly. His tail has a vicious claw on the end — and if the water doesn’t get you, the claw will.
