Organizers of the 2010 Winter Games have turned to British Columbia’s myths and legends for a trio of mascots.
Quatchi is a young sasquatch with a long brown beard and blue earmuffs, while Miga is a snowboarding sea-bear – part killer whale and part kermode bear.
And Sumi is a spirit animal that flies with the wings of a native thunderbird.
There’s even a sidekick: Mukmuk, a small friendly Vancouver Island Marmot.
