Mishipeshu Hat

Mishipeshu is the water panther of Native American mythology & Michigan legend. He lives in an island in Lake Superior, where he protects the sacred copper. He causes storms, whirlpools, rapids and waves on the lake. He is said to look like a huge wildcat with copper scales, deer antlers, and spikes along his back. Although a dangerous creature, he is also capable of bringing protection and healing, depending on his mood and how you treat him.
