Creature of the Month: Barbegazi

"Frozen Beards"

Can be found:

High mountainous regions of France and Switzerland

Description:

These Gnome-like creatures are known for their icicle coated beards and white fur garments. Their names are Swiss for “frozen beards”. Their large feet enable them to ski or use snow shoes. They are also quite useful for digging- out of avalanches or to conceal themselves within the thick snowy

Their attitude towards humans is friendly and helpful but credit is usually given to St Bernard Dogs or other rescue canines.They give warnings of avalanches by whistling or hooting.
