[Sca-cooks] RESEND: Furry Lobster

[Huette von Ahrens]

A friend of mine here in Caid managed to convince a young Blonde bimbette that there was 
such an animal as a Nauga, whose skin provides us with Naugahide.  As the story went, 
there are two known species of Nauga: The Greater Alaskan Nauga and the Lesser Californian 
Nauga.  The Greater Alaskan Nauga, although very shy and hard to find, provides us with 
the solid colored Naugahide.  The Lesser Californian Nauga is now extinct, hunted to 
extinction because its skin was striped, or polka-dotted, or plaid, which made it easier 
to find and hunt.  There are rumors that there still are a few of the Lesser Californian 
Naugas around with a floral patterned hide, but no one has seen it in 20 years...
